Issues that the hotfix package fixes
This hotfix package fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:  When you create a shim for Emsmdb32.dll to intercept all MAPI calls, and you use a Universal Delegator (UD) to wrap the MAPI objects, Outlook 2002 may stop responding (hang).

The issue occurs when Outlook 2002 tries to cast the MAPI object that has been wrapped by a Universal Delegator. This causes an invalid pointer.

For more information about how to use a Universal Delegator, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
