No, as it predates Windows XP. The "not effecting NT4/2000" implies that 
all NT based systems are equally unaffected, and that specific bug only 
occurred on Windows 9x which is thankfully long gone.

This also ties up with why the article is no longer available (in the 
normal location) as all affected systems are long out of support.
