I didn't read your links because they may be out of date. This problem is
well known to readers of this newsgroup.

See: You may experience problems in Windows Explorer or in the Windows shell
after you install security update MS06-015
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=918165

If you aren't comfortable with editing the Windows registry yourself, then
go to http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm and scroll down to Item
No. 383 "Hewlett-Packard's Share-to-Web software - Fix". Download and run
the script to automatically modify your registry as described in KB918165.
You may need to temporarily disable your antivirus program in order to run
the script.

A revised version of the update is supposed to be released today, Tuesday,
April 25, to fix these problems.

This may be "well known" to some people, but I saw several questions about it
posted today in various boards. If you are looking for these questions and
giving people the latest info, that's great.
