Why does MS keep insisting on this document. The answers don't work listed in
this document. The only way for WU to work is to bypass ISA2k at this point.
Does MS do any testing or do they assume that all their KBS cannot be wrong.
There is something missing in their thinking.

Hi

Wim just posted that installing KB871260 solved this problem
for him/her:

An update rollup is available for Internet Explorer versions
5.x and 6.0
