I think you should be fine with the action you have taken providing you *practice safe surfing* as they say. John, often times Microsoft will release kb updates with white information at

you need to keep in mind that they will not know all the possible conflicts that can arise.

I think you should be fine with the action you have taken providing you *practice safe surfing* as they say.

I got hit by this schemozzle yesterday and it cost me an afternoon's work. Currently I have my system operating because I dropped Zone Alarm's Internet Security down to medium. I know that's not ideal, but I also have some firewall protection via my ADSL router (Dlink DSL-504T). My inclination is to keep going as I am, rather than uninstall the Microsoft update. And I'll wait for a patch from Zone Alarm, which I suspect won't take long! How safe do you think my strategy is? My worry is that if I uninstall the MS update, it won't get installed again and presumably it contains _some_ stuff that's desirable.
