Thanks. I have just found another article where it's reported that many
people have their anti-virus br0k3n by this _security_ update. Apparently,
uninstalling the software and reinstalling it 'resolves' the issue. This
makes you wonder if it's a standard procedure to follow every time a patch
gets delivered.
The related links are just a recent examples. There were many similar issues
with previous patches (and service packs), which sometimes required wiping
and reinstalling the entire O/S (unless there was some remedy that's
obscure, time consuming, and hard to get by).
