We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SYMPTOMS
Under some conditions, during the installation of the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack, the Visual Basic 5.0 run-time dynamic link library (DLL) Msvbvm50.dll is marked with the read-only file attribute. This causes errors when you run any setup program created by the Visual Basic Setup Wizard. In some cases, it will cause an error with components created by Visual Basic that are downloaded into a browser.



CAUSE
This behavior is by design.



RESOLUTION
To solve this problem, remove the read-only attribute from the Msvbvm50.dll file on the server.
