Is KB977165 the 02/09/2010 update culprit?

[ToddAndMargo]

Is KB977165 the 02/09/2010 update culprit that is
causing all the slowdowns? (I have customers across
two counties screaming!)

Many thanks,
-T

There's been reports of BSOD but that's only with systems that have already
been infected.
None of my clients have complained
and My personal systems are ok.

What AV are you using on your systems?

Slowdowns? Not likely. BSODs? Possibly.

Hi Russ,

Thank you. My users AV is Kaspersky Work Space Security,
which can be paused and does not change the symptom. I
left out a bunch of information, so I am going to make
a new post with all the details.

I had a problem with the downloads, also. I checked the ISC.SANS.ORG website
and found the suggestion to remove the atapi.sys and replace it with the one
in the SP3 download. I did that and things are back to normal, including the
KB977165 file and the rest of the updates. Hope it helps you.

Hi frajul2,

I did not have a problem downloading or installing KB977165.
It is just that everything got really, really slow over the
local area network after the 02/09/2010 patches. I was
hoping someone else had isolated the problem so that I did
not have to remove 02/09/2010 one by one until I found
the culprit. Since this post, I removed KB977165 from
two machines and happy camping returned. Come Monday, I
will start on the rest and see what happens. I will
report back.

Thank you for answering!

You may think the camping is happy, but there might be malware
lurking...

I don't need any help so why are you replying to my post?

Hi Daave,

The machines all have up to date Kaspersky Work Space
Security. But, that is at best only 61% effective.
So, perhaps. You would not think that so many
machines would be hit at the same time thought.
I might also be that KB977165 does not like Samba.

Any suggestions as to which malware to check for?
