Not doing so may result in corruption of the user interface of Windows Server 2003; corruption of the uninstall functionality of Microsoft Management Console (MMC) and no removal of the “Windows Media Services” component in the Windows Components area of the Control Panel.
  
  It is also recommended you install the fix outlined in KB Article 942635 after installation of Windows Media Services 9 Series, if you are either developing or using .Net application via the .Net interoperability interfaces.
