Microsoft Screw up

The lastest auto update has damaged or completely ruined millions of programs
including Internet Explorer itself. Microsoft has not launched a repair or
even admitted this enormous failure. Why?

There are some solutions on this newsgroups which seem to have helped
some people here. I've given most of them a shot but I have been
unlucky. In our case, I guess the best thing to do is to wait until microsoft
steps up and does something.

Perhaps the following will explain & resolve your issue:

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell
after you install Security Update MS06-015
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918165

Easy Fix: Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and scroll
down to Item No. 383 "Hewlett-Packard's Share-to-Web software - Fix (MS06-015)"
to download a registry fix.

Note: You may need to temporarily disable your antivirus program
in order to safely run the scripted fix.

Also, review the following:

MS06-013: Cumulative security update for Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer ActiveX compatibility patch for Mshtml.dll

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell after you install
security update MS06-015
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918165/en-us
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-015

Vulnerability in Windows Explorer Could Allow Remote Code Execution

For those who have Hewlett Packard's Share to Web Software, there
are two registry patches to choose from (run either one or the
other) not both:

I've made a "patch" back on Saturday available at:
http://patch-info.de/WinXP/Downloads...are-To-Web.zip
(Note this is a Zip file and will need to be extracted. It contains
a REG file which needs to be imported into the registry via double
clicking the contained REG file. You may have to reboot Windows
afterwards.)

or

Kelly has made a patch with exact same functionality available at:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
Line #383 - this is a vbs file and instructions on how to use such
files are at the top of the page.

If you're using a Nvidia video card, you may want to update the driver
for that card: http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

In case you're running a Kerio firewall software, please reread

That's because you're unable to recognize, that you *don't* have
the KB908531 problems, but one with KB911567. Do you even read
the replies to your various postings in every thread that doesn't
match your problem?

I would recommened reading or a visitation of the optician you
trust in.
