Sorry to say so, but this is untrue. SP4 doesn't work with Oracle for many sites, so that because of changes by Microsoft, Oracle was forced to create patches, and patches in the TCP/IP area. There have been many posts about this issue in this newsgroup. There is a chance SP4 will work for you, yes. More likely however, it is not going to work. The only valid reason to install SP4 seems to be Y2K compliancy.

Best regards,
