    Correction, the bug has actually been fixed in SP3, as explained in MSKB
    #277743:
    
    http://support.microsoft.com/?id=277743
    
    This knowledge base article explains that in Windows NT 4.0, all security events use
    APID (Audit Process ID), instead of directly using process identifiers.
    
    This is explained in details in MSKB #221212:
    
    http://support.microsoft.com/?id=221212
    
    In Windows 2000, before SP3, all security events containing reference to
    process use process identifiers instead of APID but 592 events still use
    APID.
    
    So, it is probably a good idea to run at least W2K SP3 if you want to be
    able to correlate security events on Windows 2000...
