Unfortunately I decided to update all the current updates waiting my click of the mouse.... and dang it! I learned in the past to turn off automatic updates and auto downloads but for some reason I loaded them all and now have regrets and wondering if I'm the only one in this group having problems with that?
After reading extensively my problems are less than others but the frustrating for me is my browsers, especially Google, has slowed to a crawl with Firefox and IE working better.
If there is a tech savvy person or knows of one I could welcome some advice!

If you are unhappy with your updates, go into the control panel and select "restore." Continue with the restore options and it will give you a restore date to restore your system to. This should allow you to restore you system to the condition it was in prior to the updates.

Go to your control panel - Programs & Features - View installed updates - click on Installed Updates this puts them in date order. Look thru the ones you downloaded on that day. Find the one reference either Internet Explorer or Google - delete it and reboot your computer. haooens all the time. Updates are good but some are not needed and they do more harm than good.
