The prerequisites for installing the hotfix
package.
Whether you must restart the computer after you install
the hotfix package.
Whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other
hotfix packages.
The UserProfileChangeService service does not report user
deletions.
If blob caching is enabled for a Web site,
you cannot download files whose size is more than 32 megabytes (MB) from that
Web site.
When you open a SharePoint Search site by using SharePoint
Designer, the W3wp.exe process crashes.
You create a new page based on the "(Welcome Page) Welcome
page with summary links" page layout. You add a new link to the Summary Links
Web part, and you use a URL that starts with "mms://". However, the newly added
link is an empty link.
You convert a Word document (.docx) to a Web page on a
SharePoint site. However, the multi level numbering is incorrect. For example,
1.1 may be displayed as 0.1.
When you use spelling check in a Spanish site, it fails and
you may receive the following error message:
Spell
checking is not available for the default language. Choose one of the following
languages and click OK to continue spelling, or click Cancel to
stop.
A Shared Services Timer job opens handles for each task,
but the job does not close the handles. Because the type is set to manual reset
for these handles, the garbage collector cannot clean them up. Therefore, a
handle leak occurs in the Owstimer.exe process.
You have a Word document (.docx) that has Track
Changes enabled. You convert the Word document to a Web page on a
SharePoint site. However, deleted words are displayed in the conversion results
as unhidden text.
If you disable the Show Subsites option on
the navigation settings page and repeatedly visit a subsite, you see high
latency and low throughput.
The variation engine cannot restore destination page
properties if the page contains a Content Query Web part.
When you set a publishing time for a page in SharePoint,
the publishing time may shift incorrectly if the time zone is not Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC). This behavior occurs for the end time too.
If you input Date type cells in Excel 2007
files, the XLSX Filter extracts them as numbers.
A Variation Page propagation job cannot transfer updated
content to target labels if the page has a comma in the URL. This is because
the Variation engine cannot find propagated pages that have a comma in the URL.
The Business Data List Web part is not using the Regional
Settings collation when it sorts the data.
When you build an application to control a document
library, the SPFolder.CopyTo() API does not increase the List.ItemCount number.
This behavior causes inconsistency in the List.
The Microsoft PKM Search Filter Daemon (Mssdmn.exe) crashes
every 15 seconds when crawled using certificate authentication.
When you back up the Shared Search index,
it always fails, and you may receive the following error message in the backup
log:
[30/9/2008 2:11:46]: Verbose: Starting object:
Shared Search Index. [30/9/2008 3:12:17]: Error: Object Shared Search Index

When you search on a SharePoint site, the performance may
be slow.
Search results are not properly security trimmed for
anonymous users who access the SharePoint sites
that have the Lockdown feature activated.
This release also includes fixes that are described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base articles:
After you set the Enable RSS Feeds option to No on the Web Application General Settings page in SharePoint Portal Server Central Administration, the search result pages still show the RSS icon
When you crawl file shares that are accessed through a domain-based Distributed File System (DFS) in SharePoint Server 2007, you experience poor performance
