    No problems here. Got all the patches on several machines.

    It would appear that the problem occurs only when you have modified windows or have a virus which has done so (probably if you are already infected with the worm the patch is intended to block).

    Hi oshwyn
    I have had no problems either. Though I'm running XP Home.
    Just thought the techies here should know incase something comes up later.
