MS10-015/KB977165 causing blue screens

Toldja so.

Microsoft confirms that “after installing the February security updates a limited number of users are experiencing issues restarting their computers”

SANS Internet Storm Center identifies the problem as a Blue Screen.

I’m hearing rumors that there’s much more to the story. Stay tuned. And for heaven’s sake, don’t install the February Black Tuesday patches, OK?

UPDATE: Looks like the Blue Screen happens on systems that are infected with a specific rootkit or other type of malware. When MS10-015 is applied, the infected systems suddenly fall over and play dead. Good details on Brian Krebs’ site.
