I think I've found another problem with Update KB950759 which I installed on
6/29/08, and I'm hoping that someone can help.

I use McAfee software provided by Comcast for virus protection, and after
6/29 the next automatically scheduled weekly virus scan would have run on 7/4
but it didn't. The last successful scheduled scan was on 6/27, just two days
before the KB950759 installation.

When I open McAfee Security Center and ask it to run a manual scan, I get
the following error message inside of a Windows Internet Explorer box that
says:

Unable To Create
gObjRegHelper{6A5A9B2E-3BD7-4c70-83F2-E664A86568F4}

If I click OK in that box, I can run the manual scan, but I'm not able to
set up an automated schedule anymore.

The fact that this problem started right after the KB950759 installation
(which is a security update for IE7) and the error message is coming from IE,
leads me to believe that the problem is somehow related to the update. What
do you think?

I think you should ask McAfee technical support why you're seeing that
message.

What Leonard said.

PS: KB950759 was released almost 2 months ago: Why did you wait 6+ weeks to
install it?

I installed the KB950759 update when it was received but it caused a "Bad
Image" error message which is the subject of a previous thread. I uninstalled
the update, reported the problem to MS and waited for a correction. The
corrected update was received and installed on 6/29.

I spoke with McAfee technical support before posting this thread. They have
no knowledge of such an error message and suggested that I contact MS.
Microsoft has as yet not responded to an email I sent describing the problem.

Could be a permissions thing. ProcMon would help.

Another possible sign of a permissions thing. E.g. what account
is the "automated schedule" run under? ProcMon or even Process Explorer
could help with that too.

Depending on how the McAfee thing is hooked in it could be that the install
of the update has broken its hooks. In that case I would uninstall the extension
and reinstall it, hoping that it was still compatible enough to be reinstalled
completely.

If you can't figure it out I suspect you need to talk with someone at McAfee
who provides more than first level support. ; )


Good luck

Does uninstalling KB950759 again resolve the behavior?

NB: I'd only have uninstalled KB950759 long enough to test the behavior.

NB: The fact that your McAfee application (or any other security-related
application; e.g., third-party firewall, anti-spyware) was running in the
background when you installed KB950759 may have caused these problems.

You could always...

Start a free Windows Update support incident request:
https://support.microsoft.com/oas/de...spx?gprid=6527

Support for Windows Update:
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/wusupport

For home users, no-charge support is available by calling 1-866-PCSAFETY in
the United States and in Canada or by contacting your local Microsoft
subsidiary. There is no-charge for support calls that are associated with
security updates. When you call, clearly state that your problem is related
to a Security Update and cite the update's KB number.

LOOK!! => If your problem relates to a Cumulative Security Update for IE,
call the above number and ask to be transferred to the Consumer IE7 queue
(which is 47830).

OK, I uninstalled KB950759 and the problem still exists. Reinstalling the
update seems to have no effect, i.e. the RegHelper error message still
appears. So I guess the problem is within the McAfee software and not the IE7
update. Thanks for your help.
