SYMPTOMS

When you play Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator, you may be unable to open any

this:

1. Visit the following Microsoft Web site:

2. In the Search By area, click Keywords.

3. In the Keywords box, type "libraries update" (without the quotation marks).

4. In the Operating System box, click the appropriate operating system, and then
   click Find It.

5. Click the link that is returned, and then follow the instructions on the
   screen to install the Microsoft Libraries Update.

software to behave unexpectedly after the installation of Microsoft Works Suite
99, Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 99 (US only), Microsoft Encarta Virtual Globe
99, Microsoft Graphics Studio Greetings 99, or other third-party software.
Impacted programs include America Online (AOL) version 4.0 and HyperTerminal.
