Same here:
W2k
MS Office 2003 Professional
Office 2007 Compatibility Pack

Failures appeared immediately upon installing this month's patches, which
included updates to the Office Compatibility Pack.

This bug manifests on only the computers on the network which have not
been upgraded to Windows XP. The XP computers on the network with the
same software installed are not affected.

Watching this thread and hoping for a solution.
