IT seems that one of the Patches that MSFT released last week is causing problems according to some XP users. (Familiar Feeling).
After applying the patch from security bulletin MS06-016, say dozens of users, their Outlook Express e-mail client’s address book disappeared and form-style messages can’t be sent.
After the update was applied last Thursday, when I try to open one of the .eml [templates] on my desktop, it opens and only allows me to forward the e-mail,” wrote Ken Terry on Microsoft’s Outlook Express newsgroup.
The problem was the MS06-016 patch (also tagged as KB911567); uninstalling the patch returned the address book to its prior state and allowed template-based messages to be e-mailed normally.
