SYMPTOMS

Chat encounters a fatal error (access violation) after it attempts to restart the service if the reason for banning the user is created using the Japanese double byte character set (DBCS) characters.

RESOLUTION

Chatsvc.dll has been modified to permit the Japanese (DBCS) characters. Upgrade the system with Service Pack 1 (SP1) for MCIS. This updates the Chatsvc.dll file.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Commercial Internet System, version 1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
