Security update KB911562 problems

Hello,

This is not a question but an attempt to tell Microsoft that Security update
KB911562 screws up my computer. Shortcuts in some folders cease to function
and some application will not open. I first had the problem after installed
the latest batch of updates at once. I found out it was this update after
using system restore to go back and then reinstall each update one at a time.

When in you installed the updates one at a time, did if fix the problem?

The problem is with MS06-014, not MS06-015.

I'm having similar problems after installing this update today! I can no
longer open my photo viewer software or download pictures from my camera.
I've tried uninstalling, then reinstalling photo viewer software but it makes
no difference.

Is there a way UNINSTALL this update. How do I do that?

What is your Operating System (Which version of Windows?)
911562

IN Win ME/9x/2000, there is one ESSENTIAL thing to note
THE 911562 PATCH FOR MDAC2.8RTM DOES NOT WORK!!!
It breaks Help & Support, amongst other things.

Best advice is upgrade to MDAC2.8SP1 from here
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
then visit WU again for the new patch - which works properly with the SP1
files.

Windows version is 98 SE. Will your fix work with it?

You might want to consider upgrading to W2K or XP as 98 will no longer
get security patches even though MS admits it needs more.
