Update: MS Live.. Java Killer

This is an update to a previous post about the MS live Sign-In assistant causing Java programs to stop functioning. Microsoft released an update to the Windows Live Sign-In Assistant.  

The update is listed as an optional update through Microsoft Update as “Update for Windows Live Sign-In Assistant (KB 947449)” .     At this moment MS does not have anything on the support site for this KB.

After downloading this update and re-enabling the IE application plug-ins, Java Applications are functioning as expected.   I can’t say they are functioning well because after all, it is Java we are talking about.
