Sorry but the problem has not been addressed!!

MS was very specific:

"Hotfix information

A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft. However, it is
intended to correct only the problem that is described in this article.
Apply it only to systems that are experiencing this specific problem.
This hotfix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not
severely affected by this problem, we recommend that you wait for the
next service pack that contains this hotfix."


The problem exists even if you "copy/move/delete" files from folder to
folder on the same drive, having nothing to do with networking.

I have tried many of the workarounds found on the net, and none of them
works for me.
