Additional information about this security update

Non-security-related fixes that are included in this security update

This security update fixes the following issue:

•

950500 (/Feedback.aspx?kbNumber=950500/) Description of the Office OneNote 2007 hotfix package: March 28, 2008

This security update fixes the following issues that were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

•	You open an empty notebook on a SharePoint Web site as Read-Only. When you edit the notebook, OneNote pings the server that is running the SharePoint Web site many times. This causes excess network traffic.
•	You open a document library on a SharePoint Web site as a notebook. When this occurs, many table of contents (TOC) files are created. This causes excess network traffic.
•	You open a notebook on a SharePoint Web site. When you sync the notebook, two HEAD requests are sent to the server that is running the SharePoint Web site. This causes excess network traffic.
•	You open a notebook that contains a section that is located on a SharePoint Web site. If you encounter a network condition that causes the section to change to Read-Only, you may receive an Access Denied error message in the section. When the network condition clears, and you sync the notebook, the Read-Only condition of the section is not cleared, and you cannot save your changes to the section.
•	When you try to open a notebook in one of the following locations, the notebook does not open: • Your My Documents folder. • The root of your hard disk. • The root of an HTTP server path. Additionally, you receive the following error message: Microsoft Office OneNote has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
•	You work with a notebook that is located on a server. Unexpectedly, the size of the notebook file on the server is reduced to 0 bytes because of a network condition. When you try to sync the notebook with the 0 byte file on the server, the notebook may appear corrupted. If you try to repair the notebook, your data in the notebook is lost.
•	You open a Read-Only notebook. If you perform no actions in the notebook for about 5 minutes, OneNote crashes, and you receive the following error message: Microsoft Office OneNote has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
•	You have 2007 Microsoft Office suite Service Pack 1 installed on the computer. When you try to create a new notebook on a Web server that uses UNC server paths, you receive a warning message that resembles the following message: The location for this notebook: http://server_name/share_name/file_name does not exist. Do you want to create it? When you click OK to create the notebook, the notebook is not created.
