    Just as a general notice: fixes will ALWAYS have ALL of the previous
    fixes. You can determine what the latest fix is by looking at the
    version information of the files. These should be also listed in the
    Knowledge Base articles referenced in the bulletins.

    If you find a fix that causes a "re-show" of a previously resolved Issue
    (regression) please let us know asap.

    ciao,

    Subject: MS01-016 and MS01-014 both replace httpext.dll

    It looks like the hotfix released for MS01-016 (Malformed WebDAV Request
    Can Cause IIS to Exhaust CPU Resources) replaces the same dll as
    MS01-014 (Malformed URL can Cause Service Failure in IIS 5.0 and
    Exchange 2000). However, no mention is made on MS's site if the later
    release fixes the problems discussed in the earlier bulletin.

    So, either it does, and MS failed to mention it, or it doesn't, and
    applying this fix will nullify the prior fix.

    I haven't had a chance to determine which of these states are true, but
    I'll be looking into it tonight or tomorrow. Just wanted to give a heads
    up.
