ok I just saw that for my windows 7 there are 10 updates
as per my picture
I know it is early yet since they just came in about a half hr ago on the East Part of the USA but once you have installed them can you please post over the next few days if you had any problems with them.
After the last months problem with kb 2670838 I would like to know if any of you had any problems with these. I have a whole bunch of computers to put it besides my own and i would first like to know if anyone had problems before i get a headache :)

I'm in the same time zone and haven't got any yet. I'll let you know, those look fairly innocuous though.

I've updated a few Win 7 machines and a XP :( machine.
I believe the issue I had was an Avast! FP, and it has been fixed...
No problems with machines using MSSE AV.

I have just installed all them on two Windows 7/64 with no problems.
I do it different than some. I downloaded the update for I.E.10 and rebooted and then 3 at a time rebooting after each 3 pack. Then I do a disk cleanup extended followed by a Ccleaner cleanup.

I also do not throw them all on at once. I do the office ones first then do the security updates one at a time including the updates. Might be a little longer but less problems

Did the Windows 7 machines today, a 32 bit desktop, a 64 bit desktop and a 64 bit laptop, they all had 9 updates one of which was the Malicious Software Removal tool.
Everything installed and a reboot later everything working as it should and no problems. ;)

I'm embarrassed to post this question but guess I gotta learn so, when I looked at my list of Updates yesterday there were 8 & all were checked. I didn't get around to doing any then so went back this morning to get started & found one now 'unchecked' with a yellow arrow saying "Download is pending". Have never run across this before.

Also, when I click on 'More info' for that one, KB2823324, the page that opens says KB2829996, which is also in the original list of 8. Guess I just don't understand updates.:confused:
Thanks,
grits
oops, forgot this, there's also an update for nVidia-Graphics Adapter. I thought I've read somewhere that it's not a good idea to do that kind of update through these 'Update Notices'. I also have a couple more in 'Optionals' of what I guess are drivers. ??? I'm not familiar with doing drivers.

don't know how to get info for the other 5 areas
I just tried installing on a system with Avast! 8 AV.
I got a lot of warnings and several files got quarantined.
I'm trying them on a system with MSE AV now...

I also have Avast! 8 and had no trouble installing them. The only problem was I had set my computer to download but wait for me to say when to install them and, somehow, that got reset and, when I shut down my computer to install a new optical drive, they got installed. I prefer to wait a few days before installing in case there is a problem with one (rare but it happens).

There was never any official statement from Avast! (that I know of) that it was caused by a FP definition problem, but other people did see the same issue as me.
I think they quickly fixed it with a Streaming update.

No Problems Here R5

2009 Toshiba, 32 bit WY Ultimate,1.79 ghz, 2G RAM, Avasti( Free ) and MSE both active, also active Spyblaster.

Had IE10 and all previous updates installed. Like some others here, I start with office or windows 7 then move on too smaller security updates working my way to the largest one last.

I only do one at a time. This time consuming but since I'm relatively new to PC's and have never gone to previous restore point myself, I tend to be extra careful in watching for any problems that do and have occurred for some PC's users over the last year if not every year.

So I just did last one and IE10, MS word, and Outlook all working ok. After on of the security udpates I did have to wait a longer than usual amount of time for it to get beyond the windows logo. Began to wonder but I know from years of computer use it pays to be patient on these critical occasions.
