Major Vista Issues Since Last Windows Update

I've been using Vista for over a year on three different computers at home,
and it's been amazingly stable.

However, ever since that last big Windows Updat the other day (Tuesday the
12th), I've had problems every day.

Most of the problems have been with Outlook crashing. At least 6 times a
day, Outlook will crash. Twice it said there was an issue with a plug-in
having to do with OneNote. Once it was something else, but clicked out of it
before I could write it down.

Most of the time, though, it just crashes and says it needs to Close and
asks if I want to look for a solution and then close (I always say 'yes').
But it's ridiculous. Outlook hasn't crashed a single time before Tuesday and
now it's multiple times per day.

Then this morning I came up to my PC after I woke up, to check e-mail, and
there was a dialog up that said ReadyBoost had stopped working.

What the heck is going on and when are these newly introduced issues going
to be fixed???
 
You might want to check exactly what updates were installed, they could just
have easily been Office updates for whatever version you are using.
You can allways run outlook using the safe switch & see if the problems
dissapear.

ReadyBoost is most often associated with USB flash memory
 
Yeah, I was surprised to see the ReadyBoost message as I've never used it and
didn't have any Flash or other ext. memory devices (camera, etc.) attached at
the time.

I've rebooted and since the reboot, Outlook hasn't crashed.

Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself. :)
