Hi. The past few days I have been having problems inserting word files on
outlook emails, and opening my word files. I have scanned for viruses, have
downloaded all updates and can't figure out what is wrong. Can someone help
me. I keep on getting "not responding" errors.

Problems in Windows Explorer or the Windows shell after you install
security update MS06-015 (15 Apr-06)

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-015
Vulnerability in Windows Explorer Could Allow Remote Code Execution
(908531)
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-015.mspx has
been revised to v1.2 to reflect the issues in KB918165.
From the FAQ section:
"On Tuesday, April 25, Microsoft will issue a targeted re-release of
the MS06-015 update."


Now may not be the time to learn Regedit.
I suggest you use a .reg file already done for the purpose.

http://patch-info.de/WinXP/Downloads/KB908531_Share-To-Web.zip

Unzip it, extract the .reg file to a folder, right-click it and select
Merge and confirm when asked.

I resolved by going to Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs (make sure to
"Show Updates") and then Uninstalled this particular update (KB908531).

This seemed to fix all my problems with outlook, word, excel, and internet
explorer.
