August update and Windows XP problems

Hi all.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced reduced performance using XP since
August updates and where I might find any information on how to either fix or
rollback my system so it doesn't run like a dog?

Was working fine until the latest update. Haven't downloaded any new
software and run full virus scan (clean), and can only assume that this
spontaneous poor performance coincides with the latest update.

If anyone could post a link, or point me in the right direction, would be
much appreciated.

Problems include henious performance after about 30 minutes of use, internet
connection problems and Explorer not shutting down properly.

Running XP 5.1 SP2.

Thanks in advance.

No problems here.

What updates were offered and installed? Does uninstalling it/them correct
the problem?
