Microsoft offers a hotfix for Outlook 2000 to improve its compatibility with iCal/vCal 2.0 meeting requests. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823199 . Alternatively, have Outlook 2002/2003 senders avoid using reminders in the meeting requests they send to Outlook 2000 recipients.

Read the article again. It will tell you that, as with all hotfixes, you need to contact Microsoft Support to get the fix. When you call in, there will be an option on the voice response system for hotfixes that will get you right to the correct person. Tell them the number of the KB article that describes the hotfix.
