We have after that discovered that this hotfix will cause the product to be put in network quarantine mode in systems this feature is enabled.  Practically, it means that clients has connections only to Policy Manager and update servers. We instruct all users who have downloaded this hotfix to delete the file and refrain from installing it on any computers. Network connectivity can be restored for computers with this hotfix installed by following the instructions below.
