Is this NT4? If so, did you re-apply the latest SP after installing
IIS? .asp problems occur due to a dependency problem if the SP wasn't
re-applied after IIS. You might try re-applying SP6a, and then apply this
patch and see if that works.

As for the $240 charge... support for hotfix related issues is free -
though they take your card number up front (cause they don't know if you
really have a hotfix issue, or some other unrelated issue that you want to
discuss), tell the tech that this is a hotfix issue, and it is free
support. the magic word "hotfix" is the key word that will give you a
credit back to your card.
