All these hot fixes might be fine for computer geeks and I thank all the
people working on this with all my heart, and I'm lucky to have known just
enough to find and remove the culprit update and I'll leave all the geeky
stuff to the rest of you....but I thinking of all the folks out there that
know just enough to start their PC and forward joke e-mails, and the repair
shops that will be swamped....so the bottom line is for Microsoft to post an
update fix soon on the Update page for all these poor folks that have their
P.C. on automatic updates.
Again I thank all you folks that have lots more knowledge than me, working
on this problem.....
