I was relieved when I saw your post about the same issue I have been
dealing with for months. I too believe it is related to WSUS SP1, or
the timing sure is extremely coincidental.

Very well written analysis of the situation. Are you running Windows
Defender at all?

Thanks,

Nope, not running Windows Defender. We do use Symantec AV, but then that
has always been installed and these computers having the problem have been
in use since July 2004 - actually some of them since April 2004 - with SAV
installed and patched every month without problems, until whatever changed
in July 2006. If it isn't related to some other XP update, then one really
just has to think it is a WSUS SP1 issue, but then people are saying they
have these same exact errors and don't connect to WSUS so then we are right
back to asking what changed this summer and why does it only happen to a
small number of us?
