Re: Microsoft Security Bulletin Revisions

I agree. On my box:

The following files are installed/updated -

[C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM]
hlink.dll 5.2.3790.22

[C:\WINDOWS\OPTIONS\CABS]
HLINK.DLL 5.2.3790.22

[c:\windows\INF\QFE\W98]
888113UN.INF
891711UN.INF

[C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\KB891711]
KB891711.EXE
Q891711.DLL

KB891711.EXE is then run as a service at each boot. Several other registry changes are made.

I'm guessing that the KB891711.exe being run as a service is how MS is validating cursors, animated cursors, and icons "on the fly" as their patch methodology, at least for Win98. It's still unclear to me why you had problems on your system, but it's possible that the patch uninstall isn't "clean", so that any problems that were created are not removed via Add/Remove.

Exactly, that's why I manually deleted newly installed files, restored old files & registry, etc.

This is very irritating.
