Quite to the point: this problem only hit a minority of people. It makes me wonder whether it could all be brought back to a very specific MSE update that the victims all downloaded at a certain time...so instead of all XP systems with MSE encountering problems at once and the ensuing negative publicity for Micorsoft when it makes the headlines it stays below the radar and 'forces' people to upgrade to Windows 10 or something...
