Thank you very much.

Microsoft Product Support Services is aware of the problem. We are
working on a resolution to this, in the meantime the bulletin for
MS03-045 has been updated to reflect this and will also be reissued once
we have a resolution ready.

As Russ mentioned earlier, customers who are experiencing these problems
should contact Microsoft Product Support Services via any of the support
channels available through http://support.microsoft.com/ so that we can
track this properly.

Kind regards,

Subject: Patch MS03-045 for Czech W2K has conflicting kernel32.dll

Patch MS03-045 (824141) for Czech version of Windows 2000 has
kernel32.dll with preferred base address changed and causing overlay
with mpr.dll. If a process using mpr.dll starts and kernel32.dll is
loaded first, it's OK - mpr.dll is relocated (the only effect of the
conflict here is a bit greater memory usage since pages of relocated
libraries are not shared between processes). If mpr.dll is loaded first,
kernel32.dll cannot be relocated (is present on "KnownDlls list") and
the process does not start at all. Uninstallation of 824141 helps to
resolve this problem, but leaves the system unpatched by MS03-045.

English version of the patch seems to be OK. We've not tested other
language versions.
