We are running Windows Sharepoint Services 2 in our intranet environment and have installed service pack 3 and have encountered irreversible errors. (The service pack can be downloaded at this link). Unfortunately Microsoft didn't release an uninstaller for the service pack - so desperate measures were taken in our organization. A significant error we experienced is the security for web parts for most of the websites does not allow anonymous access. Meaning most of our websites doesn't allow users to enter at all.
I have found another thread were users are experiencing the same issues + plus another handful: click here.
At the latest - Microsoft is aware of the issue and is scheduled to release a "hotfix" by January 08. Since we don't have the luxury of time - we would have to uninstall WSS entirely and reinstall with Service pack 2. Then just map to the existing databases since the databases are still intact and operational.
Good going Microsoft!
