If you encounter this error under Windows NT 4, retrieve MSKB article Q173430


For help locating MSKB articles, see What are these Qxxxxx articles people

Yes, and did you follow the instructions to locate MSKB article Q173430?
That seems to be where the answer is, and the FAQ page included a link to
instructions as to how to get there.
