Subject: recent automatic updates causing problems
I've had to switch off automatic updates because the recent set makes my
works calendar unable to open.  Has anyone else had that problem?  Does
anyone know a solution?

Outlook express won't open e-mails and will not let me reply with these last
updates. I'm leaving updates on in case Microsoft find the problema nd fix it.

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell after you install
security update MS06-015 (15 Apr-06)
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/918165

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-015
Vulnerability in Windows Explorer Could Allow Remote Code Execution
(908531)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx has
been revised to v1.2 to reflect the issues in KB918165.
From the FAQ section:
"On Tuesday, April 25, Microsoft will issue a targeted re-release of
the MS06-015 update."

Now may not be the time to learn Regedit.
I suggest you use a .reg file already done for the purpose.

http://patch-info.de/WinXP/Downloads/KB908531_Share-To-Web.zip

Unzip it, extract the .reg file to a folder, right-click it and select
Merge and confirm when asked.

After receiving MSN Automatic updates KB908531, KB911562, and KB912812 it

Subject: RE: recent automatic updates causing problems
This is my first time coming into this site and making comments, so bear with
me.  Noticed some complicated comments about the KB908531 update that sound
complicated.  I was unable to navigate on the web after these updates until I
restored my system, but kept getting the updates will install dialog box
until I turned off the auto updates and went to the update site.  THE ABOVE
KB908531 WAS LISTED AS AN OPYIONAL AND WHEN I CHECKED IT OUT, FOUND IT IS
INTENDED FOR THE IE7Beta WHICH I DON'T HAVE AND I THINK IS NOT YET READY FOR
RELEASE.  In other words, an IE7 update is being installed to earlier
versions and screwing things up.  Leaving auto update off for now until they
straighten this out.

Nope, you're mixing up KB908531 (MS06-015) with the indeed optional
KB904942 update obviously.

Nope again.

Bye,

No.
I have no idea how you came to these conclusions.

KB908531 is not listed as an OPYIONAL
KB908531 is not intended for an IE7 Beta.
An IE7 update is not being installed to earlier versions.

Please read all the information in this thread.

Thank you so much for all your help Alan,
I decided to migrate my e-mail to Outlook, I have been meaning to for some
time, but was worried I may lose my e-mails. I had no need to worry it guided
me straight through the process and very quickly copied all my e-mails
accross.
I just hope they don't break Outlook now.
Regards
Jean

Didn't have a chance to get online yesterday, so I didn't see your responses
until a few minutes ago.  You guys are right, I blew it somewhere when I
looked up the material.  But I looked up KB904942  as mentioned by Ottmar and
that's the one I had the problem with.  Sorry bout that and thanks for the
extra eyes guys.  Guess I'll stick to driving trucks, at least I know how to
read maps and street signs!
