Microsoft pulls software update | |
|
||
| Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: MSNBC | Posted By: Todd Richardson | ||

Microsoft Corp. withdrew a security improvement for its flagship Windows XP software after it crippled Internet connections for some of the 600,000 users who installed it. Microsoft officials said Tuesday the update — which had been available as an option since Friday on its “Windows Update” Web site — apparently was incompatible with popular security software from other companies, such as Symantec Corp. Microsoft said internet connections failed immediately for an unspecified number of more than 600,000 computers using Windows XP who downloaded and installed the update. Consumers could reconnect only by removing the update, which promised to improve reliability for types of secure Internet connections commonly used by corporations. | ||
