Task scheduler failure - Q812960

[MelodyK]

All of my scheduled jobs in Task Scheduler started
failing with this error: The attempt to log on to the
account associated with the task failed, therefore, the
task did not run. Verify that the task's Run-as name and
password are valid and try again.

I have Win XP Pro, SP1.

The passwords are correct. According to KB article
812960, this means I have a corrupt task database and
need a hotfix patch. How do I get the hotfix download?
My XP Pro is through MSDN Universal so I can't use the
regular support, but I can't find anything about this on
MSDN either.

Your help will be much appreciated.
