  1. Windows patch 841873 disabled Mozilla Firefox!!! on 4 New "Extremely Critical" IE Vulnerabilities · · Score: 4, Interesting

    This one blew me away. I went to Windows Update and installed today's critical updates. After restarting my computer, Mozilla Firefox wouldn't run! I got the "has experienced an error and has to close" screen. So, I started uninstalling the patches. When I tried to uninstall 841873, I got a message that said that, if I continued with the uninstall, Mozilla Firefox would no longer function. The really interesting this is, once I uninstalled 841873, FIREFOX WORKED!!! No a conspiracy nut at heart, but this is just too coincidental. Has anyone else experienced this yet? Running XP with all current updates (except 841873) on a P4 3 ghz with 512K. Mozilla Firefox 0.9.2
