Office 2003 Service Pack 2

I can confirm it's got nothing to do with the Outlook jm filter. I have the
same problem on my pc at work, and it doesn't even have the new jm filter
installed.

What I can recall is that when SP2 was released & I downloaded on 28 Sep,
the download was just short of 50MB. The download now is 90.9MB (I'm
downloading again now). I think MS has put more things into SP2.

I will note the version no. of Excel before & after installing the new SP2.

50MB version of the patch is what we call an optimized patch. It is smaller
since it does binary patching instead of the full file replacement. The 90MB
patch does a Full File replacement. At the end once any of the patches is
applied you should get the same result. You do not have to install SP2 again
if you successfully installed once. We are looking into this problem.
