Thank you Teun and Hyatt, 

I had the same problem and was almost giving up after reading all of Microsoft 
web site support pages. The problem is indeed with KB891711. I had installed 
Mozilla and after windows update installed the KB891711 nothing worked. Just 
removed the update and everything is normal again.

Tks.
