Microsoft Update causing problems -- fix

Hi...this computer started having multiple problems after the latest MS Update download. I posted an earlier thread about one of those. Since this fix is for multiple problems I thought I'd post it in a separate thread. Here's what MS Says (the fix page follows):

SYMPTOMS
After you install security update MS06-015 (908531) (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx), you may experience one of more of the following issues:• Unable to access special folders like "My Documents" or "My Pictures".
• Microsoft Office applications may stop responding when you attempt to save or open Office files in the "My Documents" folder.
• Office files in the "My Documents" folder are not able to open in Microsoft Office.
• Opening a file through an application's File / Open menu causes the program to stop responding .
• Typing an address into Internet Explorer’s address bar has no effect.
• Right-clicking on a file and selecting Send To has no effect.
• Clicking on the plus (+) sign beside a folder in Windows Explorer has no effect.
• Some third-party applications stop responding when opening or saving data in the “My Documents” folder.


Here is the page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918165

I have followed the instructions and am back to normal. I did find MANY instances of VERCLSID.EXE and deleted them all.

Hope this helps someone!
