Typical MS Windows patch causes blue screen of death for some

Once again Ms windows update destroys Windows.
this is the primary reason i don't agree with all experts about installing Windows update automatically and believe it should be done manually at least a week after MS fixes all windows update problems or pulls it off Windows update sites.
On Tuesday, Microsoft released a patch (KB977165) for Windows that can casue widnows not to boot i have seen this already
here is a possible fix
1. Boot from a Windows XP setup CD and select Recovery Console at the prompt
2. Change directories to the uninstall directory of update in question: At the C:\windows prompt, type "CD $NtUninstallKB977165$\spuninst" and press Enter.
3. Run in the uninstall script for that update: At the prompt, type "BATCH spuninst.txt" and press Enter. This executes the txt file as a batch script.

Microsoft has posted an offical response to the issue (it might say somthing like we have a monoply on you computers and are not responsable for our product you are!)
