In response to this thread, I have just run Win Updates on this WinME
test
bed and been offered two updates:
KB 888113 & KB 891711, the possible problematic updated being discussed
here.
I have successfully installed KB 888113 without any problem.
I will now attempt KB 891711, while simultaneously running Norton AV 2004
Pro with the latest signature updates and all core file updates.
If you do not hear from me very soon, you may suspect that my system is
unusable ...

I'm still reluctant to apply the patch, even though I am no longer
running
any Norton products. As with other updates, this one DOES create a
restore
point (for those that fail to do so manually), doesn't it?
Heirloom, old and EZ AV is working for me

(OK, I'll say it - blame Norton!! They've managed to f^&* up
everything
else in ME, so why should this patch be any different??)

In ,
heirloom had this to say:
My reply is at the bottom of your sent message:
I am seeing a lot of references to this particular update causing
problems with a common denominator of NAV (or related Symantec
product). When installing this update, does it not create a
restore
point? And, yes, due to the nature of NAV, it would be necessary
to
reinstall after a System Restore. Has anyone pinned this on the
use
of Symantec products??....or is there still a chance it is browser
related?? Heirloom, old and holding off on this
one
No one has had the gaul to blame NAV yet though I've been leaning
towards
it. My biggest problem is taking it out on a single company when
there
are
too many variables. I'd absolutely hate to be the person who caused
a
large group of people to switch to more effective solutions. Well,
okay,
I
would... But I do try to examine ALL potentials before jumping out
and
saying it's NAV. However this does seem to be the one constant
among
most
of the posts... I think, my good sir, that Heirloom shall be the
bearer
of
bad news on this one 
See also the number of threads in the 98
group.
The update is specifically about this:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/Sec.../ms05-002.mspx
It's only available via the updates site itself for 9x/ME. Some
have
trouble, some do not... Methinks if I were more carefully oriented
I
could
go back and cite examples to SUPPORT your NAV claim my good sir.
Indeed
it
seems likely as I browse through my answers which are highlighted
and
flagged to appear on top. However, I'm not tellin' all of 'em!
They'll
lynch me! I'm only 31 and have a wife and 2 kids! Besides, I'm a
coward
:P
You tell 'em...
