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.
oob-fix
asp-fix
java-fix
dns-fix
iis-fix
lsa-fix
dblclick-fix
icmp-fix
zip-fix
roll-up (or roll-up/cluster)
mdl-fix
getadmin-fix
roll-up/cluster
winsupd-fix
ndis-fix
scsi-fix
2gcrash
simptcp-fix
ide-fix
wan-fix
land-fix
pent-fix (x86 only)
joystick-fix (x86 only)
SAG-fix
iis4-fix
pptp-fix
teardrop2-fix
tapi21-fix
pcm-fix
srv-fix
y2k-fix
euro-fix
atapi-fix
netbt-fix
prnt-fix
sfm-fix
pptp2-fix
rras20-fix
lsa2-fix
ssl-fix
priv-fix
pptp3-fix
rras30-fix
