The latest Windows security patch has started to cause me to receive the blue
screen on bootup at every bootup. This occurs after login but appears to be
before all services are loaded up.

Ran computer in safe mode and selected show updates from the "installed
programs" list. Noticed there was a recently installed security patch. I
uninstalled it and now my computer boots with no problems.

Would like to be up to date on these security patches but am unable to do so
with these blue screen crashes.

Where did you find "shows updates from installed programs list?? I've got
the same problem and it won't even let me do a system restore to fix things!

Is there supposed to be a question in there?

More of a warning. We had two machines with the same symptom after last
Tuesday's updates.

Nothing for it but a re-install.

But here's a question: Why?

So...
What patch was it?

You uninstalled it - it gave a name and KB######... What patch was it.

Whether this was a warning or a question - the specific patch is a *large*
part of the equation.
E=__c^2 is not the same a s E=mc^2... ;-)

I still would like someone - anyone - to identify this " latest Windows
security patch."

Nah - that's the type of important detail that might clarify the situation
and help those who might be able to assist actually give specific
directions/help. Better if everything was left all foggy and unclear - that
way anyone can jump in and agree that they too had the same problem and why
isn't Microsoft doing something about it?

*eg*
