Back up your Registry before doing so, please.

The fix should only take you 2 minutes, if that.
Copy the 14 lines between the "XXXXXX" below and paste it into a blank notepad document. Save the document with a .REG extension (like Fix.reg). Double Click the .REG file you created and answer Yes to load. (this loads it automatically to the registry)
Thats it.
FYI: That is the fix for the MS05-52 problem. I was on the phone with Microsoft for 4 1/2 hours straight last night. I had the problem on 3 servers that got updated with the bad patch automatically. We thought it was a virus and I ended up wiping all 3 and reinstalling.
