Log on process has failed to create the security options dialog.
X - Failure - Security Options.

that is exactly the reason why i never update anything.
to me everything should work right out of the box.
did you try it again after you shut it off?

"There's a service, Superfetch, that tries to load up your idle RAM with stuff that you may soon use. This is stored in "Cached Memory," and is supposedly freed up if a running process needs it. I believe that perhaps something happened that corrupted the superfetch service which causes it to constantly cache things in memory, but never frees the memory when another process actually needs it.

If no other remedy has helped to relieve this problem, try this. Go to Start -> run, type "services.msc" and click OK. Locate the process named "Superfetch", right click, properties, and disable it. Now, reboot and see if your problem has gone away."

Looking at the update log, it seems like it was a big Windows security update. You really should do those when they are available. Different security threats pop up after your PC is out of the box. Doing the security updates helps keep your PC safe. It's very possible that your PC did the update and you didn't even know it.

Micro$uck likes re-inventing the wheel every time they come out with an update.  It's asinine.
