Help!!! I did a system restore this afternoon back to Monday Jul 7, and my
computer 'fixed' the Microsoft critical update/zone alarm problem that
happened Tues/Wed..
Computer is running great. An hr. later in my task bar I see the icon
asking me to install the updates, so it looks like my computer again
downloaded the
critical updates from Microsoft.
I am assuming that the update they want me to do is the bad one and I
don't want to have the problem again so no way am I going to download it
again.
How do I get rid of the icon in my taskbar that wants me to do the
update? I am assuming that Microsoft has not yet solved their problem.
Thanks for any help,

Open the Windows Update site, and look at the option to disable that update

It is not a Microsoft Problem, it is a ZoneAlarm Problem.
Either remove ZoneAlarm or change it's setting to Medium.
Then get a better firewall than the free ZoneAlarm.
You should have the MS Patch if you want your computer protected.
 
Thank you, I removed Zone Alarm from the computer. I am thinking I can
always reinstall it at a later date when they fix their problem.
Also wondering if I really need it as I have the settings on in my
Security Center set to on for
Firewall - automatic updates - and Virus protection. I am using XP
