MS04-038 breaks VALID drag and drop code

The hot fix associated with MS04-038 is designed to prevent some drag and
drop operations working. However, the fix appears to break good code with
VALID src attributes.

e.g. using Microsoft's own example code for drag and drop:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/s...OverviewEX.htm

If one copies this code to a web server in a directory called "TEST" and
change the image src attribute to be "positive" relative,

e.g src="images/Golf98.gif"

it no longer works.

If I change this to an absolute link within the SAME web application,

e.g src="/TEST/images/Golf98.gif"

it still is broken! If I change it to a link to a different web app on the
same server, it works!

e.g. src="/SOMEWHEREELSE/Golf98.gif"

Surely it shouldn't work with EXTERNAL links but break INTERNAL links!!!!!

(In all cases I ensure that the image is in the relevant location and
displays in the browser).

Please fix the hotfix!

Ken
