content: One might argue MS does have a fix, since my solution set is simply two updates from Microsoft. How many people actually call Microsoft and pony up fee for support?  The URL I'm unable to cite from (printed out no URL on page footer/header) stated it was an issue on the client side of the proccess. System gets into a loop trying to build the index of all the updates needed.  Meh, whatever, I choose not spend the energy caring about the source of the fix and aprieciate the fact I just have one. Do with the information as you want.
