Notes
- Controls that prompt before they are loaded
Note This issue occurs on Web sites that do not use the recommended techniques. For techniques that you can use to resolve this issue, visit the following Web site: When certain controls are loaded on a Web page, the controls are not correctly masked by the functionality of this update. These controls include controls that are used in Macromedia Shockwave Director, in QuickTime Player, and in Virtools Web Player. When Windows determines that a control is inactive, the system prompts the user before the control is loaded. - ActiveX controls that use Java Platform, Standard Edition 1.3 or 1.4
After you click an ActiveX applet control in a program that runs the applet control by using Java Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.3 or J2SE 1.4, the focus does not return to the applet control. You must click the control again to establish focus. The focus behavior works correctly in J2SE 1.5. To obtain the latest version of J2SE, visit the following Sun Microsystems, Inc. Web site:For techniques that you can use to make sure that ActiveX controls function without user interaction, visit the following MSDN Web site:

- In Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2 and in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1, the Add or Remove Programs item in Control Panel lists software updates under the name of the product that the updates apply to. In Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Add or Remove Programs lists this update under Windows XP - Software Updates. In Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Add or Remove Programs does not show "Installed On" information for this software update. Therefore, this software update does not appear in the order of installation. Instead, this software update appears at the top of the Windows XP – Software Updates list.

- File version verification with Dxtrans.dll and Dxtmsft.dll
Users who do file version verification based on the versions of the files Dxtrans.dll and Dxtmsft.dll that are actually being installed will notice that the file versions on their systems after installation are not 6.3.xxxx.yyyy but are 6.0.xxxx.yyyy instead.
Dxtrans.dll and Dxtmsft.dll are derived from a separate Microsoft product which had its own versioning scheme that differs from Internet Explorer. The binary versions needed to remain 6.3 for the major and minor product version to allow for correct versioning upgrades. Internet Explorer 5 and Internet Explorer 5.5 releases already contained the 6.x versions of Dxtrans.dll and Dxtmsft.dll. In Internet Explorer 6, the Dxtrans.dll and Dxtmsft.dll product string versions were changed to match the Internet Explorer version, whereas the binary version had to remain 6.3 to install over the previous 6.x versions.
