Yes, task requests are apparently broken if you applied the January Outlook security update. Stay tuned.

Default Tasks Broken?

The latest information we have is that some installations of the January update (MSKB 892843) may not completed successfully. Try this:

1) Use Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs to remove the update.

2) Create a couple of new task requests to test whether they're they're working. (Old ones will still be broken.)

3) If they are, try reinstalling the update, and then also install this update -- http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;913695

4) Test again.

Let us know if this works for you.

Did you check the Show Updates box in Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs?

I don't think Windows 2000 handles updates the same way as Windows XP. You may want to file a support incident with Microsoft since yours is a slightly different case from the usual end-user setup.
