| 1373976 | 2014-05-02 00:15:00 | Another good reason for not doing updates! Secretly it's Microsoft forcing people to get with the times :devil |

| 1373977 | 2014-05-02 02:33:00 | Secretly it's Microsoft forcing people to get with the times :devil A bit dumb from M$ who frequently lack awareness as to what time it is. (Their updates are like nappy changes for their target market, applied for much the same reason, although nappy changes are nowhere near as likely to replace or supplement the old stuff with new.) ;) |

| 1373978 | 2014-05-03 12:51:00 | I do not have the foggiest idea of what you guys are talking about. But I installed a MS update (XP) a couple of hours ago and since then my pc wouldn't complete loading. Almost there, tried to kill tasks, but yeah...nah. Just continued to hang. Useless. All hail Safe Mode and System Restore. |

| 1373983 | 2014-05-10 10:36:00 | Damned if I know what to do. Running XP. I have disabled automatic updates. Nevertheless every time I shut down, the pc when restarted refuses to complete loading. Almost there but not quite. The icons for Google, Malwarebytes, Firefox and some others don't load. Task Manager shows very low CPU activity and 750mg of RAM used but refuses to let me stop processes. The only way I can get this machine running is Safe Mode and System Restore back to a week ago. I've searched for this problem but all I can find is that Windows 7 has serious update problems and MS are up to Version 18 to try and resolve it. Is there a MS tool to fix? |

| 1373984 | 2014-05-10 11:52:00 | Once you run system restore its runs OK ? If so what else is being updated (if anything), are there any messages saying installing ?????? | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1373985 | 2014-05-10 12:58:00 | Yes, the MS K series. One allegedly is for the Explorer Hole but I seldom use explorer. No problem downloading it but there is another K series patch as well and it all goes bad. | Winston001 (3612) | ||
