There are MS updates coming so often. The last couple did something to my ISP. So I restored to a few days ago, and all is well. Also, changed the settings for automatic updates.
Am thinking of changing to Firefox, as I heard there is not a constant stream of updates. True?

I experienced the same thing and turned off auto update, now all I do is update the virus about once a month. It's still a pain in the but.
Good thing you knew about the restore point. I had to learn the hard way.
I used Netscape until MS crushed them, it was a good browser.
I totally crashed my system a couple of years ago I downloaded a program CS something, can't remember the whole name. It was supposed to clean out all the un-necessary junk that acumulates.
It cleaned it out all right. It screwed every thing up and restore wouldn't work at all since all those programs had been scrubed or deleted. My point is use caution and only the usual tools provided to maintain your PC I found this site and have used it a couple of times with no problems so far.
