1. Are you sure it's not a virus? I don't have the problem and I believe that updates just downloaded a few days back. 2. Is your Windows copy legal?

Golden rule of working with Microsoft products (specially OS). "When in doubt, restart" ;P

:(( No no please no... :( I'm setting up a secure transfer socket so that you can send it to me... I need it man... Meanwhile setting up a SSL tunnel with AES-256 bit encryption, ready for diffie-hellman key exchange? ;P

Yes, I know. :( Never hurts to do some preliminary searching to avoid long-term software lock-in which has always been the downside to choosing Microsoft solutions.
