Great suggestion Miike. The technical support representative in the
Phillipines told me that they had the update was intended for Windows 2000
not Windows XP but they set it up wrong to be installed on Windows XP and
they were overwhelmed with calls from users. They are notifying Microsoft
Engineers in Seattle, WA about the problem, but it takes time for them to
correct things.
Sounds like Microsoft has very bad Quality Control problems with its
software releases.
Next time I will wait a couple of weeks before updating my computer with any
updates.
I am in Los Angeles, California by the way. Where are you?
Best wishes, and I would appreciate hearing any other advice that you have.

This has been going on like this for years now,and I'm sure it will go on
for years to come.
The hardcore MS people will tell you that MS cannot predict what will happen
with every users system with every update because of the different programs
installed on peoples system.

Posting for Windows XP Security and Administration:
There is a defect in Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 for
Windows XP (KB942615) Date last published: 12/11/2007, because when I
installed it, it constantly gives me the error message "Internet Explorer has
encountered a problem and needs to close" when I try to open Internet
Explorer after my computer starts.
When I removed this update from my computer, the computer opens Internet
Explorer without any problems, but with the update installed it crashes.
I just found out from MICROSOFT TECHNICAL SUPPORT in the Phillipines that
they are getting hundreds of calls about this problem.
He said the process of quality assurance a t Microsoft is not working and
that it should have been tested before it was released.
The manager and technicians responsible for this problem should be fired
from their jobs immediately and new quality assurance procedures should be
developed for releases at Microsoft.
Please reply to this post with your opinion and how these problems can be
corrected.
