HI Tony
I also did the update and my computer was slow. I did a
system restore and uninstalled 811493. I then contacted
Microsoft with my problem. I was told to do just what I
had done and now I am waiting for another response from
them. I also contacted Dell and was told not to do
updates. After emailing back and forth 5 times, Dell sent
to to an unrelated Microsoft site for help. I don't think
securtit is Dell's priority. If I learn any more after I
hear from Microsoft I will post another message.
