URGENT UPDATE HELP

Hi

I am running Windows 2000 Server SP4
Last night, I ran the latest update on the windows update from my taskbar
icon.
I was then asked to reboot after running the update. Unfortunately, since
then, the machine seems to hang at the point before the "ctrl+alt+del" prompt
is presented with the message "restoring network connections". However, I am
able to login this morning using Safe Mode boot up.

How can I get back to normal i.e. prior to running the update? I think I
will be extremely cautious about future updates from Microsoft.

vincenta,

IF you can boot to Safe Mode then uninstall the update from Add/Remove
Programs. Which update caused the issue ?
