Feb 9, 2010: Windows Patch Leaves Many XP Users With Blue Screens?

<< < (4/7) > >>

Bamse:
No and it would not count anyways since in a VM but for now I think he has a point ;) Don't feel like testing for real. I am listing to a Linux podcast so lets say it is evil MS scheme to promote Microsoft Security Essentials if not Windows 7 64bit, heh.

Bamse:
Forgot to say I failed at first infection. Ran Dr. Web Cureit and it removed or rather cured problem. Did not select report only. Dr. Web is pretty good with the latest and greatest but perhaps most tools can remove by now.

techidave:
I just ran the windows update on a new install of xpsp3 and didn't see the KB977165 listed.  Perhaps MS has pulled it.

cmpm:
Yes they did pull it according to this article-

Bamse:
They have not really said much yet though http://blogs.technet.com/msrc/archive/2010/02/11/restart-issues-after-installing-ms10-015.aspx

However, we have not confirmed that the issue is specific to MS10-015 or if it is an interoperability problem with another component or third-party software.

3rd. party software includes rootkits but he did not say that  8) Would be useful if those with reboot problem would scan with a bootable Dr. Web or whatever.
