    hello there,

    yes there is a fix for that specific prob, in fact there are multiple.
    but i know for sure that the fix is available in hitmanpro
    you can download it and select the fix you want to applie, and run hitman

    you can find it via this tread : http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/265379


    hopes this helps ! :)
