I am not sure as the entry for Windows XP Service Pack 3 does not show a date but I think it was installed before SP3. (I was building a new workstation and did a bulk install of all of the suggested security patches, then install SP3 and then install some more newly suggested security patches.) > [sounds to me like your VPN vendor needs to fix something on their/your end, > or you need to replace ZA and the vendor.] Unfortunately, the VPN vendor is not under my control. As to replacing ZA it appears from the thread that a number of firewalls have the same issue.

See Update History at http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com If WinXP SP3 was installed after you'd installed KB951748, you'd have to uninstall WinXP SP3 before being able to uninstall KB951748. -- ~PA Bear saberman wrote: >> There isn't an uninstall/Remove option for KB951748 or you get a >> "Such-and-such may not work if..." prompt when you go to uninstall it? > > Change or Remove Programs says: > Security Update for Windows XP (KB951748) > Click here for support information > This update cannot be removed. > >> Which was installed first, WinXP SP3 or KB951748? > > I am not sure as the entry for Windows XP Service Pack 3 does not show a > date but I think it was installed before SP3.
