Anyone have CPU cycles up after the KB958644 update? My HP laptop with 32 bit Home was pegging one core at 60-70 % after the update! Uninstalled it and back to normal??

Anyone else seeing that?

No I haven't shooter902

In IE7, I had to recheck the Automatically detect settings box, at Tools - Internet Options - Connections tab - LAN settings, for Windows Update to be able to connect to the internet again after installing this update.

ahha ... now I know why my CPU stayed at 100% usage all the time even I closed all the programs ..

No problems with the patches here, You have to reboot after installing it though

I take it this is why my PC had rebooted when I got up this morning, loosing all the graphics I was working on last night
