Re: Auto update kills all office applications

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,

I'm experiencing the same problems after/during a Office 2004 update
AND after the latest QuickTime+iTunes update. I think the culprit is
the QuickTime update.

Some additional discussion here: http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20070711140051311

But no definitive fix yet. :-/
