Yea, I had to call MS. They don't charge for the call if you reference the
Article number because anything patch or service pack related has no charge.
They give you a link to the patch in a email that contains a password to
open the archive. The patches have passwords to unzip them that expires
periodically. The reason they are careful about distributing some patches
is because they haven't been fully tested to not cause other side-effects,
so they only give them out if they are reasonably sure that is what you
need,.....hence the process you have to go through to get them. But it did
the job just fine for me.
The number I always call is 1-800-936-4900
Tell it relates to article #238853
