Problem with IE Update KB978207

Since installing the above security patch for Internet Explorer (I am using
IE8) I now cannot click on any dropdown box (either within the box or on the
downpointing arrow at the right hand side) on any website or form (I have
tried more than a few). If I do my browser first freezes and then (after a
while, I have an old PC) gives me the "IE has to close" box, this happens
every single time.

Whilst I cannot be absolutely sure it is the fault of the update, all I know
is I had no problems before I installed it and started having them first time
I went online after installation so it seems like a reasonable assumption.

Any ideas would be appreciated or, alternatively, is there any way I can
remove this update? This is a big problem for me as I do a lot of online
surveys for extra cash.
