Looks those having third Party Anti virus/Internet security software are more affected by. Got only MSE 4.2...could be why not having issues.
I haven't uninstalled yet that kb2823324...'cause of no trouble, nothing appears in the Events Manager (ID55).
If a patch comes soon i'll do then.

I'm fully aware of that. I just don't like it because a acronym is by design to shorten a group of words.
MBAM is by far the most used method.
So everybody can have a good nights rest I will just stop using MAM.
I assume you will all be as criticizing of cell phone text methods and other little little goodies that are use here.

i uninstalled it with no issues on 2 machines, actually one machine after I had installed the security updates was acting very funky, program and features would not load for me to uninstall it, and I lost the internet.
I rebooted, still no internet, finally uninstalled the bad update, after the reboot internet came back.
the other machines I uninstalled it on (40) are so far ok after the uninstall

I just uninstalled successfully on the laptop and got the same issue reported earlier by kado897: Got offered it again via Windows Update within minutes.
I suppose the servers haven't all caught up.
So, it's hidden on that rig for now.
As I have no issues on either of the other 2 rigs (despite the fact that I am running a Kaspersky security product, though not the same version mentioned in the MS article), I think I will wait a day or so before uninstalling on these other boxes.
Still interested in feedback from others about their experience with the patch and with any issues uninstalling it.

The majority of people will never know that this is/was a problem... so they will never uninstall it much less hide it. Time will tell if the patch to the patch works well.
I've uninstalled it from one "important" computer. I'm leaving it inside a virtual machine so that I can play with it. Maybe I'll install Kaspersky stuff. I like Kerbs' broken window.

+1, I agree...
I installed the update on several systems and didn't have any issues.>>"If it ain't broke...." -- leave it installed or uninstall, as Redmond recommends???<<
After reading about the warnings, I uninstalled it on a couple of systems without any problems.
By uninstalling it, I feel I re-opened security holes the update fixed.
If someone uninstalls it and gets hit by something that exploits the unpatched security hole, they are screwed.
If someone keeps it and something happens that breaks the system because of the faulty update, they are screwed.
Until MS has a fix, I think it's a personal best guess to decide if it's better to uninstall the update for stability, or keep it for security.
