Microsoft wishes its customers Merry Christmas with its new Anti bug software. It came out with flying colors after announcing the software to fix up the problems with MS Office suite.
The bug temporarily locked users using MS Office 2003 documents. Microsoft, as a download from its technical support site, made the patch available. It put a bang on all components of the MS Office 2003 suite, including Word documents, Outlook e-mails, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations. According to Microsoft officials, the problem was caused due to the expiry of an Information Rights Management certificate. Imposing a chain of custody over sensitive files, the situation could have caused headaches for law firms, healthcare companies, government agencies and other organizations that use RMS.
The bugs were unable to produce any hassle to the files that were not protected with RMS. The bugs used to greet its users who tried to open impacted files with a message “Unexpected error occurred. Please try again later or contact your system administrator."
During this transition period Google and IBM took away the market. They put a bang on the face of Microsoft by launching their new free MS Office suite which was free of cost and also had all the packages that MS Office offers.
According to a spokesman from the firm, this problem has been fixed. The issue of inability to open MS Office 2003 documents protected with RMS has now been resolved with a hotfix.
