Default Latest Windows Update problem?

Hi All,

For 2 nights in a row, my PC has updated. the next morning when I go to log into MSN or open firefox, it seems that I cannot get to the internet. I have had to restore my system 2 times now. has anyone else seen this problem?

Thanks

Well yes some updates can cause crashes and freezes and loops of a pc/laptop also driver downloads.

Either wrong update or a driver corrupts while downloading or installing.

You can check update history on windows update website for last updates to see which one may of caused this.

Or check and remove and check box show updates.
