Windows Remote Desktop Connection

I use XP Pro and RDC to connect to work from home. I tried RDC earlier on this evening and got an error message which said "This pre-release version of RDC has expired...".

A check of Windows Update revealed no updates available. A trawl around the www revealed that a shedload of other people have had the same problem today.

Here's the fix - it turns out that XP3 SP3 is broken. Download the .exe and the ENU file from here and install them. It fixed the problem.
 
I'd always recommend avoiding service packs until they're out of the release candidate stage. I've had so many problems with SP RC's in the past that I just don't bother with them anyway.
