SUMMARY
Microsoft has released an updated version of Microsoft Backup (Backup.exe
version 4.0.952) that corrects the following problems:

If you have a tape drive installed in your computer and you click the
Restore tab in Backup, click a backup set file, and then click Next Step,
the Erase Tape command on the Tools menu may be available even if there is
no tape in the tape drive. If you click the Erase Tape command and the
backup set file that you selected is located on a floppy disk, hard disk, or
network drive, all the data on the disk containing the backup set file may
be erased.
When you restore a backup set created with Backup, you may receive the
following error message:


      Microsoft Backup has encountered a serious error in the Memory
      Manager. Quit and restart Backup, and then try again.
