Security update bug??

Posted: 01-04-2009, 12:38 PM
I find that Explorer hangs several times a day since I recently updated the
security fix.
Anyone else with this problem?

No, I don't have that problem since I use Mozilla Firefox. :-)

Same here (for a couple of years now)... and it hangs occasionally as
well, so don't try to say it doesn't.

You use Mozilla as a shell?

If you explain what 'updated the security fix' means then maybe someone
can assist you. If you're referring to a security update automatically
downloaded and installed by Windows Update, open Control Panel >
Programs > Programs and Features

Top left of the window, click the "View installed updates" link.

Explorer is not Internet Explorer.

Yes it is. IE is Explorer with a shell around it.

If so then it is really big shell. IE has all of HTML and Dynamic HTML and
other protocols (such as ftp) and much more that the Windows Explorer does
not have. Most of that is in SHDocVw.dll and most of the shell, which is the
Windows API stuff that the Windows Explorer does, is in a different dll.

One thing they have in common is that enumeration of shell windows does
provide IE windows.
