After installing Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer
(818529), Help & Support on XP/Pro started to play up.
I had no index at all, and when a search was copmleted no
link from that page would work.
Uninstalled 818529 and everything went back to normal.
Anyone have an idear why this is happening and any way to
fix it.

Thanks
John
 
John, did you receive your Cumulative Patch via an
unsolicited e-mail from "Microsoft" to "MS Partner"
Subject "New Microsoft Security Update"?

I received my message Monday, July 7 and it has me
extremely skeptical since one of the two attachments is
an .exe.dat file. I have seen alerts in the past warning
wary users of accepting what may look like legitimate e-
mail with .exe attachments.

It certainly looks official. With mentions of "latest
version of security update, the July 2003 Cumulative Patch
updates." links to "Microsoft Technical Support and
Microsoft Security Advisor web site.

I was going to call MS tomorrow to verify it's
legitimacy.
