Has anyone experienced a lack of speed after they installed the lastest
security update for win XP x64. My system takes longer to logon to my
server, open IE, and when clicking on icons on screen and also when using
internet. There is a delay of several seconds (up to 5-10secs) now between
the mouse click and when anything happens.

Using F8 I went into Safe Mode and I did a system restore back to 2 weeks
ago and it speeded up. Then I downloaded the update again and it gone back
to being slow.

I really haven't noticed anything. And given the nature of this latest
security update, I wouldn't really expect an impact. And I absolutely
wouldn't run without it.

Thanks Charlie.
I may just re-install as I have been doing alot of testing with lots of
different programs and may have corrupted something.

Thanks again.

Try running msconfig (Start, Run, msconfig <ENTER>) and see what programs get
loaded at the start group (last tab).
There might be some unneeded resident apps there that might be clogging your
system.
