I don't think so. It is scheduled in exactly the same place when using 
either 3.9 or 3.10. Using InstEd to look at the msi shows there are 4 
CAs associated with the WixCA binary - and WixSchedInternetShortcuts is 
the first one to have run.

My suspicion would be that the DLL may have been compiled in a non-XP 
valid way (not sure what to look for, but using PEDUMP, I can see that 
wixca.dll(wix9) was linked with v12.0 and wix10 was with v14.0).
