Was OE or Wal-Mail open when you installed KB978542 on the laptop?

If you'd closed OE before installing the update, a reboot wouldn't be
required. spamlet wrote: Cheers: Now all I need is a way to stop it telling me I need to restart my computer every 5 minutes! ;-) S "Richard in AZ" wrote in message ...

I close all programs before doing any updates (I'm configured to be
notified; I go to Microsoft Update myself). I have three computers running WinXP fully updated. Here's what happened with the latest update: desktop computer, XP Home, needed to restart laptop computer, XP Pro, needed to restart netbook, XP Home, didn't need to restart Jo-Anne "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote in message ...
