Could try these:
Run the microsoft fix-it tool: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9666880
Run the system update readiness tool: Download: System Update Readiness Tool for Windows 7 (KB947821) [May 2012] - Microsoft Download Center - Download Details

It appears Microsoft (MS) is being inundated with complaints about the KB2699988 update especially if the user has DFX Audio Enhancer version 10 installed on the computer - Workaround
Intermixed in the following two links are posts where the user does not have DFX installed.
Latest Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows 7 (KB2699988) makes IE9 unusable - TechNet
After installing KB2699988, Internet Explorer 9 is no longer - Microsoft Answers
IMHO, MS's eyes were bigger than their stomach, in trying to use this GDR to fix problems that stem all the way back to IE6, and XP, See Applies to: MS12-037: Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer: June 12, 2012
MS should be painfully aware of the problems that IE9 caused when it first came out March 14th of last year but they still insisted on producing this all inclusive GDR.Hotfixes
Security update 2699988 packages for Windows XP and for Windows Server 2003 include Internet Explorer hotfix files and general distribution release (GDR) files. If no existing Internet Explorer files are from the hotfix environment, security update 2699988 installs the GDR files.
Hotfixes are intended to correct only the problems that are described in the Microsoft Knowledge Base articles that are associated with the hotfixes. Apply hotfixes only to systems that are experiencing these specific problems.
These hotfixes may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, we recommend that you wait for the next service pack that contains these hotfixes. For more information about how to install the hotfixes that are included in security update 2699988, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 897225 How to install hotfixes that are included in cumulative security updates for Internet Explorer

We have KB2699988 installed on our machine with no problems, but we only have IE8.
I would remove KB2699988 for now, and hide it the next time it shows up in Windows Updates then wait to re-install until you hear the issues have been addressed.
See Information box, and Example for: System Restore - Enable or Disable to determine.
To reach System Restore:
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\System\Click on System Protection, left Panel
If any of the buttons on the System Protection Tab; System Restore\Configure\Create are grayed out then System Restore is Disabled if not then it is Enabled.
Thank you Anak

You guys Rock!
Glad to hear things are working. Great news! Thanks for posting back.
Your welcome blouogies!
I echo marsmimar's sentiments, great to hear your system is stable now, and posting back to let us know. Thank you!
I recall that you did not have enough restore points:
As you have experienced, it would be in your best interests if you had more points to work with.
My general rule of thumb is to have enough points to overlap the previous months release of Windows Updates.
Currently I have 29 dating back to the 17th of May, 26 that deal with Windows Updates, and three with programs that I installed.
If you would like to increase the amount of points follow this tutorial: System Protection - Change Disk Space Usage
It should be noted that this increase will depend on how large your HDD is, mine is 1TB, and I have allocated 27GB to give me those 29 points.
With only six showing in your Snip attachment it would seem that you are only allocating maybe 8GB. I would at least double that, then use your machine at least until the next round of updates to see how many you now have in reserve.
It will take a while depending on the amount of activity on your machine, see information box here: System Restore Point - Create
Here is how I have mine set:
Oh! And don't forget to click on Apply, and then OK.
