I have had to restore, deinstall, etc the latest updates a couple of times.
I think I narrowed it down to the IE update 867282. I have a legitemate
version of XP Pro (even checked it voluntarily at MS), have SP2 installed,
and keep up with the updates. For some reason, when I install one of the
updates, and I believe it is that one, upon restart I get an explorer error,
a report is generated, and I have to use the task manager to start processes
(thankfully I can start restore and/or add/remove from there!)
Interestingly, since Firefox is my default browser and Explorer cannot
start, Firefox comes up at the MS website and the screen reads that they
cannot figure out what the error is, but sometimes it can be that SP2 is not
installed... Click here to download and install SP2... RIGHT... like I am
going to install it a 2nd time!
I have had to remove more than just one of these updates before it would
restart and come up normally - if I choose the right date (on the first try)
I can usually do a restore. More than a couple of tries and I have to do
add/remove.

Any word on problems with the security updates?
