.ANI Vulnerability Patch Breaks Applications
Jud writes "Microsoft's fix for the .ANI vulnerability was part of Patch Tuesday yesterday. However, all is not well with the update. Reportedly, installing the patch will break applications such as Realtek HD Audio Control Panel and CD-Tag, which mentions they are affected by the problem on their main page. A hotfix is currently available from Microsoft, however their current position is this is an isolated problem and the fix is not planned to be pushed out through Microsoft Update. "

Naturally Linux Genuine Advantage is open source, and not to be outdone by Microsoft platform hackers a hack is available to auto-certify LGA without actually contacting the LGA server.

That is your root cause of the problem. Stop using IE, all your problems will go away.
