Is your Windows 2000 to Service Pack 4 level? If you need the hotfix
you will have to call Microsoft for it.

Because these hotfixes are issued to fix specific problems and should
only be used if you are expriencing these specific problems. The
hotfixes may not be fully tested for every possible scenario and they
may cause unforseen problems on some machines. They aren't meant to be
installed to computers without the problems. Computers being what they
are you can be sure that if the hotfixes were to be readilly available
to the general public a lot of folks who don't know any better would
download and install these fixes then they would complain because the
fixes broke their computers. Microsoft doesn't want those headaches and
hassles so they don't make the fixes available to the general public.
