SYMPTOMS
========

If two advertisements that are based on the same package and program are sent to
a client, those advertisements will be merged. If one of the advertisements
allows users to run it before it is assigned and the other advertisement does
not, the following behavior occurs:

When the merged advertisement reaches the client, a message pops up that the
Advertised Programs Wizard has a new program to run, but when the Wizard is
opened, no new program is displayed.

WORKAROUND
==========

When the dialog box for a new program in the Advertised Programs Wizard is
displayed, disregard it.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Systems Management
Server version 2.0.
