News Microsoft patch borks scrolling on IE 6

From the Inq:

WE DIDN'T want to write this story until we'd verified it for ourselves.

But old Microsoft appears to have borked the scrolling with its Q824145/K824145 "update", which is beginning to destroy a version of IE we've got here.

We're experiencing somewhat of a double scrolling problem here on our machines.

There's a bit more on this here. Does this prove that "Windows Update" is an oxymoron?

 

just one more reason not to use IE for anything.

i would try opera as a fix for this

 

I was in the middle of installing that update when I stumbled across the Inq reporting that. GRRR!! I haven't actually rebooted yet, so I'm not sure if it's going to cause me much trouble. At least it's easy to remove

 

I know what im gonna be getting calls about tomorrow... great. More work for me.

 

This is the first thing I read after the post windows update restart, no problems for me though...

 

mozilla is the way to go.

 

I use IE for normal use and Opera to use my uni's web proxy so I can access the intranet.

I actually prefer the plain and simple IE to other browsers that seem to try and compete by adding a ton of useless **** I will never use. Plus with IE everything displays perfectly which occasionally doesn't happen with some other browsers...

 

i just updated this morning and have had no probs...

 

probably a glitch from having paegen browsers installed

j/k

 

It also seems to break the handy links in windows explorer(left pane) you click on em' and they don't do a darned thing I reinstalled IE which worked.
