Dave,
Specifically, which update is causing this ?
Which firewall is being used ... which antivirus/security suite ?
BTW, you can set Automatic Updates to " Download updates for me but let me choose when to install them " to avoid the reinstallation of the problematic update ... if you know the KB number of it <g>
Just UNcheck the box next to it when the update icon appears in the Notification area.

New "wireless network wizard" does not work -- requires a USB port on the router for the thumb-drive option and won't move forward on any other option.
Use GoBack to restore to a time before the update and the network works fine. Unfortunately, the automatic update keeps screwing things up "automatically" whenever I am away from the computer for a while.
