Since installing microsoft XP patches a week ago the
system has been unacceptably slow with frequent 'not
responding' messages and aps needing closed by tesk
mananger. System was stable and performance the best I've
seen under a Microsoft operating system prior to adding
these patches with 'not responding' messages confined to a
few isolated and explainable occurrences.

The 4 patches installed on the same day, so I don't know
which is causing the problem are:

811493, 815485, Microsoft Net framework 1.1,
Windows Mesenger 4.7.

Until then system worked beautifully.
Have 393mb memory this is not the problem.

Have tried the system tools and inserting the Windows XP
disk. Short of a total reinstall which don't know how to
fix the problem.

Are there any reports or problems with these patches?
Any fix of fixes coming? Any suggestions of what to
remove ?

Thought I'd ask before attempting to remove and install
individually as there are 10 combinations poosible.
