Nothing like quoting verbatim the Microsoft site.

I too am looking for the fix. Microsoft says it's downloadable, but you need to pay for a support call to get it, which I'm not willing to do. Aparently SP2 fixes it, but I haven't seen it available yet. Would you like me to let you know when (if) I find it?
