Anyone else having problems with the KB934238 update installing on their machines? After a quick search I found a couple of posts about it and ended up just telling my machine to ignore the update.

It’s been over a decade since I’ve been in college but if I remember correctly, money was usually a hard thing to come by when I was there.
