Issues that are fixed in the hotfix package
The following issues are fixed in this hotfix package but were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:  Repeated calls to the CoInitialize function, the CoCreateInstance function, the Release function, and the CoUninitialize function on the same thread causes a memory leak. Concurrent XA_RECOVER operations that are initiated on separate threads may cause the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) proxy to stop responding. A registry handle leak in the Rpcss.exe process causes profile unload failures. Computer beeps continuously if an SC_SCREENSAVE event or an SC_MONITORPOWER event occurs during a pending COM call.  The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) service quits unexpectedly, and the following event is logged:

Event Type: Error

Event Source: MSDTC

Event ID: 4168

Description:

The MS DTC Transaction Manager is in an inconsistent state and cannot proceed. Please contact PSS. (null) File: .\tmlufind.cpp, Line: 726

 COM+ multithreaded apartment (MTA) thread pool logic causes increased CPU usage. Eventually, the Dllhost.exe process uses 100 percent of CPU resources. A Remote Procedure Call service (RPCSS) token leak causes Client Service for NetWare (CSNW) not to close connections after clients log off.</li> Queued COM+ application stops responding during an idle shutdown.</li> When you add a Distributed File System (DFS) link to the system PATH variable, a long logon delay occurs.</li> You cannot debug COM+ components in Microsoft Visual Basic IDE in Microsoft Windows XP after you install the MS04-012 security update.</li> The MSDTC service may quit unexpectedly, and you receive the following access violation message on your Windows XP-based computer in some disabled network scenarios:

Access violation - code c0000005

</li> The MS04-012 security update may cause performance degradation because it disables catalog caching in RPCSS for COM+ class information.</li></ul>
