Issues that the hotfix package fixes

This hotfix package also fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
  • When a custom program or an Outlook 2003 plug-in uses the MAPILogonEx function, each call to this function creates several security tokens that are not disposed of after the MAPILogonEx function finishes. Over time, these tokens accumulate and cause the custom program, the Outlook 2003 plug-in, or Outlook 2003 to stop responding or to crash.
