I can not run DOS programs since last XP update

[Desperate DOS apps user]

Since I installed last patch yesterday, every time I try to run a DOS program
from CMD window or directly by clicking on the DOS icon of the app I only get
a frozen DOS window... What can I do?

WinXP SP2 or WinXP SP3? What patch did you install yesterday?
