I am at the mercy of windows experts here, as I only have one virtual pc instance of windows 2000 to play with. I'm suspicious that a patch would cause postargs to strip IFF the form is witango, and it's SSL, but that's the report. The report is that the second patch clears the problem. When this started happening, I got on the phone to the users of the affected desktops and they reported that postargs were stripped for only one site and not it's identical twin on a development machine. The IT people say declaratively, that it's every witango site.

If folks have the first patch and not the second on an XP machine (not sure if it's only XP) try to hit an SSL form on a witango site and on a something else site with SSL.

or you can try the ones in question:
http://www.ridgewine.com/taf/store.taf
and it's twin
http://ridge3.imagineworks.com/taf/store.taf

hit them both regular and https

thank you.

I can not reproduce this problem on any of my machines with my sites. I have
tried it with the security patch applied and I do not have the KB831167
applied.


However there is a KB833407.
Unless Ronald's number is wrong then my sites seem to be fine and I wonder
if it might be something else.


It seems like a strange bug to crop up from a security patch.

Have a case that causes some concern:

A company applied a MS Security patch to their MSIE browsers:
The MS04-004 Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (832894)


The result was that they could not submit forms that were POST. More
specifically, they couldn't post forms to witango forms, those that
were processed at tml files or things as simple as builder-created
forms. Postargs were stripped out. They could submit forms to sites
served by other application servers, just not witango site. In some
cases they could submit and then re-submit and the postargs would
appear and get sent.

Has anyone else had such experiences?

They found that

MS04-004 Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (832894)
Breaks it:

Microsoft KB831167 Fixes it:
