- Can you be more specific about the problems that this patch supposedly fixes regarding My Ebay? I haven't noticed anything wrong with My Ebay on my machine.

- Has anyone installed this, and hopefully not had any problems since it was installed? Don't want to install something like this only to have it cause more problems.

- Installed these on 3 different PCs. Each is working like a charm.

- Installed both and have a possible problem, since I'm 90%+ sure these were fine before. Look at an HTML email and try hovering the mouse over any one of the links you find in a typical newsletter or other mail. It used to be that you'd get a little yellow pop-up revealing the URL. This also worked in Outlook 2003 Beta 2. Now it works in neither. No popup. You have to view source....
This COULD be something else that happened, but these patches are my top suspects since they put their fingers all over IE/OE/HTML type stuff (that Outlook 2003 taps as well).
Edit: OE puts the URL on its status bar now. I swear it was a popup before. Also, the popup sometimes works in Outlook now, but not consistently.

- Not really a show stopper though, I prefer my security over a little eye candy.

- I've noticed that these patches, like the last few, aren't available for plain IE6 (no SP1) on Win2K, only IE6SP1 or IE5.01SP3 (which is installed with Win2K SP3). I can't find IE6SP1 on any magazine cover CDs etc., and it's pretty impractical trying to download it over a dial-up, especially as I want to keep the installation files for future use if something gets damaged. I'm sure I'm not the only person using IE6 gold on Win2K, so why won't M$ release these patches for us?
On that note, does anyone have all the IE6SP1 installation files they could burn to CD and send to me?

- I'm annoyed...
These both add Uninstall entrys to clutter up my add/ remove list.
As these are IE updates rather than System QFE's the -n option doesn't work 
I also noticed that their isn't a Windows 2003 version of this, Given when 2003 RTM'd several weeks ago I doubt that 2003 has this update.

Original versions of the pirate-proofing technology blocked consumers' ability to copy or "rip" digital files from CDs altogether. After that proved unpopular with an increasingly PC-centric listening audience, copy-proofing companies like Macrovision and rival SunnComm Technologies looked for a way to put protected pre-ripped files directly on CDs, which could then be transferred to PCs instead
