RESOLUTION

A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that this article describes. Apply it only to systems that you determine are at risk of attack. Evaluate the computer's physical accessibility, network and Internet connectivity, and other factors to determine the degree of risk to the computer. See the associated Microsoft Security Bulletin to help determine the degree of risk. This hotfix may receive additional testing. If the computer is sufficiently at risk, we recommend that you apply this hotfix now.

To resolve this problem immediately, download the hotfix by following the instructions later in this article or contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the hotfix.

Installation Information

Before you apply the update, stop the MMS Server service. If a ZoomServ folder exists on drive C, the update is applied to that folder. This occurs even if the C:\ZoomServ folder is empty. If you installed MMS in a different folder, delete the empty C:\ZoomServ folder, and then reapply this update. The patch installation will then prompt you for the location of MMS.

This update does not support any installation switches. After you apply the update, restart the MMS Server service.
