handle leak - hotfix availability

Hi,

I (believe) I'm experiencing the bug that's documented in kb article 842675
entitled "A handle leak occurs in a process that uses Corperfmonext.dll in
the .NET Framework 1.1", http://support.microsoft.com/kb/842675.

In the article it says that a hotfix is available and to contact them,
except the link to contact doesn't actually provide any options for
contacting a technical engineer. Does anyone have any idea how I can get
hold of this hotfix, whether it was shipped out as a service pack, and
whether it's fixed in .Net 2 ?

Thanks,
John

John,

I haven't come across this particular problem myself, but on this page
http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/?ws=support, which you can get to
from the link you included, your best bet is to click the Contact a support
professional by phone or e-mail link. This is what I do if I need a hotfix.

Hi John,

Regarding on service pack, .net framework 1.1 has only SP1 so far. For the
issue you mentioned in the following KB:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/842675

it should be published after service pack1, therefore, if you need the
hotfix, you need to contact the PSS follow the instruction in that article(
"Hotfix Information section)

Sincerely,
