Windows update KB2862330

[Georgeablelovehowindia]

Please don't groan if advice on this botch is posted here somewhere. I've searched and I can't find it.

I've also tried uninstalling it, as recommended on the Microsoft forum, but back it comes, causing my wife's laptop - Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3 - to do the double boot-up thing.

So far, it isn't doing anything worse, unlike some people I see on the search engine.

No problems for me with that update on W7 Pro

It seems to be confined to Windows XP, and only certain users.

I suppose you have tried to delete it when in Safe Mode?

The nearest I seem to have is KB2862335 - is it hiding, or is there some reason I don't have it?

W7 Pro

If it is here somewhere, is there a way I can temporarily stop the updates installing - until this issue is fixed?
