Glad to hear someone else had similar problems. My video card is
a GeForce 2MX400 with 40.72 vers. Nvidia drivers, there are newer drivers
but they don't work as well on my system.

We have two out of our three Win98SE computers at work that are experiencing those
exact symptoms since installing the update mentioned. Despite some of the claims
here as to the cause, the machines have no malware; are using the latest updated
drivers for sound and video (machines are only a couple of years old); are not using
McAfee or Norton products; and are connected via broadband (RoadRunner) through a
NetGear router. I removed the update and all is well. I await some clarification
from MS.

The WinME computer and all the XP machines in the same network have no problem.
