I posted the following here a few days ago.
For those of you who are lucky enough to boot up your
system after installing KB835732 and your machine just
responses SLOOOOOWLY, try the following to remove it.


After installing Security fix KB835732, the SYSTEM.exe
procress uses up 99% of CPU time, and make the system non-
responsive.

To unistall it, I did the following
(1) Boot into Safe mode.
(2) Run TaskManager - and noticed that the SYSTEM process
was using 99% of the CPU time.
(3) From TaskManager set the Priority of the EXPLORER
process to REALTIME, so that I can get to the control
panel.
(4) Run ADD/REMOVE PROGRAM from control panel.
(5) Go back to TaskManager and set the Priority of
MSHTA.exe to REALTIME, so that the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAM can
get some CPU time.
(6) Select and Remove "Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB835732".
(7) Go back to TaskManager and set the Priority
of "SPUNIST.exe" to REALTIME, for the uninstall program
to
run.
(8) Wait a few minutes, and the uninstall program will
eventually ask you to click FINISH to reboot the machine.
It took a long time for the system to shutdown and I just
unplugged the power.
(9) The machine should become normal after reboot.
 
Mine would not boot with KB835732 installed unless I
removed the network cards.

How do I contact MSFT to let them know of this problem???
 
Thanks so much. That did the trick. One thing I'll add is
(at least for me) if you boot in safe mode w/ out
networking the problem didn't seem to happen so I didn't
have to deal w/ setting the process priorities.
