Ran windows update on Vista laptop IE will not connect to the inte

After running windows update last night Internet Explorer will not load any
web pages. I can still get out to the internet VPN etc but IE is dead??? Any
ideas!!!

This sounds like the same problem I have
I used system restore to undo the update this got things back to working order
then asked microsoft to let me know which update is the problem they haven't
got back to me yet
My laptop is a compaq with vista premium
I know this isn't a solution but maybe someone else will get in touch with
an answer best of luck I think we will need it

I closed all my programs and let windows install updates again with same
result I then removed
cumulative security updates for Internet Explorer in windows vista (KB933566)
had to restart/login couple of times then seams to work ok
I'm willing to risk it
Maybe we need protection from malicous microsoft updates more than other
threats

I have the same problem and the info from Gist was not helpful (except now I
have to redo all of my settings)

I also discovered the unistalling KB933566 fix the problem, but it
reinstalled itself again, so tonight I will have to uninstall it again and
turn off automatic updates.
Vista is a real turd, why isn't there some kind of lemon law for computer
software?

I have e-mailed microsoft with this info so they might get it fixed sometime
soon
I don't know if the law about products being fit for the purpose applies to
software

The "File Download – Security Warning" dialog box opens when you try to open
Internet Explorer 7:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937409

The default location in WinXP is typically C:\Documents and
Settings\[Username]\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files. Change the
location of your TIF folder back to the default*, reinstall 931768 if you've
uninstalled it, and all should be well.

*Some have observed that changing the location to any other location
corrects the problem, which suggests that the real cause of the behavior is
incorrect Permissions.

I have just successfully re-installed this update with many thanks to Joe at

http://itsvista.com

In short what I have done is uninstall KB933566 then disconnect my computer
from the internet
disable my anti-virus completely than re-installed KB933566
after restarting made sure my anti-virus was turned back on again then
reconnected to the internet
this seems to of solved the problem hope it works for you
