"Alert Topic: Connexion client record display affected by Window
Alert Status: Condition reported
Affected Services: Connexion client
Alert Created: 02/14/2007 9:39:32 AM ET
Last Updated: 02/14/2007 3:10:49 PM ET
Description: Windows updates released late on February 13 are affecting the
individual record display
in Connexion client 1.60 and 1.70. Search and browse listings will display
correctly,
but individually-selected records will not display. This problem affects both
records
retrieved via online searching/browsing and records from the local
bibliographic save
file.
Additional Notes: The Windows update that created this problem is identified
as KB918118. When that update
is uninstalled the problem disappears. This action may not be desirable since
the update
was developed by Microsoft to address a security vulnerability. Additionally,
when an
update is uninstalled Microsoft will attempt to reinstall it at a later date.
OCLC is in the process of creating a patch that will allow the update to
remain
installed. Please check this system alert for status."
