Hi All,

After the 02/09/2010 updates went on, I am getting calls
from customers complaining about massive slowdowns.

From my initial research, I have found that if I copy
a file they are having trouble opening on the network to
their desktop, the slowdown vanishes. The slowdown
only occurs when trying to open a file, such as an
Excel spreadsheet, from the network. What should
take 1 second, takes 10 to 15 seconds.

Now, two of the three, business users complaining
are using Samba (Linux) for their file server.
So, no Microsoft patches on those servers. The
third business is using peer to peer. All
of the workstations are using XP-Pro-SP3.

Most of the XP workstations are running Kaspersky
Word Space Security (KWSS): kav6.0.4.1212_winwksen.exe.
Some prior versions of KWSS too. Both pausing
and exiting KWSS does not change the symptom.

I am seeing these as the (XP) update on 02/09/2010:

KB978706
KB978251
KB975713
KB978262
KB978037
KB971468
KB975560
KB977914
KB977165 <-- heard this one causes BSOD's
KB890830
KB905866
KB979099
KB978506
(did I miss any?)

I am about to start uninstalling them one at a time,
but thought I'd ask the groups first what they thought.
Be nice if I only had to uninstall one. Tons of rebooting
the other way. :'(

Many thanks,
-T

Hello ToddAndMargo,

I cannot confirim the problems you describe, we didn't have any problems
on XP clients or with slowed down network after installing the updates.

Best regards

Just to Clarify that Update does NOT cause a BSOD
However when a System is Infected with a certain Malware
and the update is installed
it affects the booting process.

Please do not post that this update causes a BSOD
It's the Infected PC that causes the issue not the other way around
Thanks

Russ

Hi Russ,

Do you know which malware is causing the BSOD's
with KB977165? Even though I am not getting BSOD's,
I'd like to specifically check for it.

Many thanks,
