I experienced these problems last week and having spent an afternoon repairing Office etc, managed to figure out it might have been the patch I updated XP with in the morning. The Microsoft Web site gave no warning so I reinstalled all patches going back 6 months and some how this fixed all the problems. Lucky for me I'm reasonably technical but someone without the experience may have spent considerable sums of money trying to fix the problem. I am delighted that Microsoft are providing update and security patches helping to protect my system but they need to react faster or be more honest when problems like this occur
