that dang update

oh btw this is the one that freezes your comp...soz

If you are referring to 811493, it is now a Recommended update, not
Critical.
No one here debated the problem exists.
The root cause is unknown.
The fact that many do not have an issue is proof that it can be
successfully installed.
The one thing that seems clear is that the speed issue is associated
with AV applications.

The actual cause of the issue is likely a combination of installed
applications, settings etc.
The exact relationship is unclear which is why some computers have it
and other apparently similar systems do not.

The best choice if a computer has the issue is to uninstall the update
from Add/Remove Programs, NOT System Restore.

I've got speed problems after installing Q811493 and it's
not just related with AV applications. My Winamp3 has
slowed down as an example. I have the problem on 2 P4
machines with over a gig of ram. This whole thing should
not have happened. I have tried shutting off my AV, then
uninstalling and reinstalling Q811493. What a joke that
suggestion was. I'm not running anything heavy duty but
the machines slow down starting anything up (10-15
seconds). These machines used to be lightning fast before
the installation of said update.
I'm yanking this sucker off my machines again!
Hello Microsoft can you hear me?!

Chuck;
I did not mean to suggest the problem meant only a slowdown with AV
applications.
The slowdown seems to affect the whole system.
The cause appears to be some relationship with the patch and AV
applications.
