I have AVG on my windows partition. It is much friendlier and does an
acceptable job. Of course, instead of ditching Norton you _could_
ditch Windows....

Ya, but then how do you run all your Windows apps?
Why would you want to?
Just find the apps that do what you need under Linux. If you run into
one or two things that you can;t find a replacement for, install WINE and
run those couple of Windows apps that way.

I checked my update history and found the following were updated on
5-9-07 which is when all this started to happen. The ability to go to
the Microsoft Update page developed after this situation occurred. I
never had a problem with it before
Capicom - Security Update for Capicom (KB931906)
Windows XP - Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for
Windows XP(KB931768)
Security Update for Word 2002 (KB934394)
Update for Windows XP (KB930916)
Office 2002/XP - Security Update for Excel 2002(KB934453)
Security Update for Office XP(KB934705)
I was able to delete all the above with the exception of :
Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool- May 2007 (KB890830) as I
couldn't find this one.
I then checked for the updates I loaded between the 9th and the
present when I was trying to load available programs from Microsoft
Update page to try and correct the problem thinking it was missing
software even though it previously found none when I ran the test.
However, it did have other updates available; thinking these were
unfinished updates, I loaded the following:
Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP
(KB931768)
Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP (KB929969)
Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1 Service
Pack
1(KB886903)
Update for Windows XP (KB934238)
Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1
Microsoft .Net Framework 3.0; x86 (KB928416)
Root Certificates Updates
Update for Windows XP (KB920342)
Microsoft.Net Framework 2.0x86 (KB829019)
Microsoft Base Smart Card Cryptographic Service Provider Package;
x86(KB909520)
Update for Windows XP (KB896344)
Nvidia Corporation - video - Nvidia
GeForce2MX
Microsoft .Net Framework version 1.1 (failed)
I was able to delete the following from the above list. The rest I
wasn't able to find. Is there another way of finding the other
updates
listed above? I would think since it found those below it would show
them all unless of course they didn't load in the first place.
February 2007 CardSpace Update for Windows XP (KB925720)
Remote Desktop Connection (Terminal Services Client6.0) for Windows
XP
(KB925876)
Security Update for Microsoft.Net Framework, Version 2.0 (KB917283)
Security Update for Microsoft.Net Framework, Version 2.0 (KB922770)
I had it set up that the computer would load all the programs and be
at the desktop when finished. Now it stops at the welcome screen and
requires me to click my name before loading.
I just finished investigating and deleting those programs I could
to see if it makes a difference but it doesn;t seem to.
I have Norton disabled and there's an icon which shows updates are
ready to install but I'm rather leery of doing so right now until I
get my computer up and running as it was before.
So where do I go at this point? Try to do a System Restore? I would
like to do a System Restore from the Safe Mode but am leery of doing
so as I have never done it before. How do you go about it and how do
you exit from it?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert
Do a system roll-back to the day before those updates went down, 5-8 or so.
Cheers!
