Re: Microsoft Security Bulletin Revisions I suppose you could always kill the service in System Configuration (Startup) and find out if Windows hiccups...  . At a minimum, you will lose the essentially real-time validation of icon and cursor formats against the possible exploits MS is trying to block. Of course, if MS has "wired" the patch service directly between existing major code modules, your system may go belly up. 
If you really want the service to go away, you could always simply uninstall the 891711 patch completely via Add/Remove.
As I recall, there were none of these exploits known to exist in the wild at the time of the patch creation - but, as we all know, that can change in minutes. I do know that I'd not hit any risky websites or download much of anything with the patch disabled though...
