My XP were working find before, however since the Windows Update with the
items below, then it could not start up normally, even in Safe mode. I have
to use system recovery to the date before the WINDOWS UPDATE's date.

Could anyone has this problem?

Are you running WinXP SP2 or SP3?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?
