WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior:
 * 1) Using Windows NT Explorer, rename the Nwprovau.dll file located in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder. To do so, right-click the file, click Rename, type a new name for the file (such as Nwprovau.sp5), and then press ENTER.

NOTE: The file may be in use by Windows, so it may be necessary to rename the file from a command prompt.
 * 1) If you created an uninstall folder for SP5 and your uninstall folder contains Service Pack 4, locate the Nwprovau.dll file in the %SystemRoot%\$ntservicePackUninstall$ folder, and then copy the file to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.
 * 2) If you did not create an uninstall folder for SP5, locate the Service Pack 4 CD-ROM and copy the Nwprovau.dll file from the I386 folder on the CD-ROM to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.
