What order should I apply the Hot fixes?

A. A. There is no specific order to apply post ServicePack 4 and Service Pack 5 hotfixes.

The Service Pack 3 hotfixes are, for the most part, cumulative. This means that the latest binary also includes fixes previously made to the same binary.

For example, the 01/09/98 version of Tcpip.sys (teardrop2-fix) also includes previous fixes to Tcpip.sys (such as land-fix, icmp-fix, and oob-fix).

When you apply multiple fixes, please install them in the following order to ensure a newer fix is not replaced by an older one.
