CAUSE
Microsoft Hotfix 943232
An application that uses the Sxs.dll file crashes when you run the application on a Windows XP-based computer.
This problem occurs because of an access violation that is caused by a heap corruption in the Sxs.dll file. When you run the application, the SxsFindClrClassInformation function is called two times. The first call is to calculate how much buffer the function needs. The second call is to write the data into the buffer. However, the number that theSxsFindClrClassInformation function calculates is smaller than the number that the function writes. Therefore, the heap is corrupted.
RESOLUTION
