Note that the CSEs available via 943729 are not compatible with the CSEs for Desktop Standards.
In other words, if you are using Desktop Standards Software to push out GPO Settings, dont install 943729 on your clients and servers. Installing this update will overwrite older CSEs and then break Group Policy Processing.
These CSEs in 943729 are only to be installed if you are on Server 2008 Domain Controllers and utilizing GPO Preferences from there.
