[Xavier]

after install this update, no more Internet, Windows live messenger
identifie this problem as fire wall or proxy problem and also impossible to
log in only one possibility to log on : uninstall KB951978
I work with XP pro SP3, IE7, MSWLM 8.5

I have that update, and I have Internet access. Nearly as I can tell, that
bug requires some version of the Zone Alarm PFW to manifest; and I stopped
running ZA a long time ago because of another ZA flaw.

Try setting your Internet Zone security to "Medium". Or try another Personal
Firewall.

Shortly after I posted that, ZoneLabs came out with a patched version of ZA
which addressed that problem.
