Black Screen of Death
BBC News have reported on an issue with Windows 7 whereby when a user logs in, all he / she is presented with is a black screen with the “Computer” desktop icon, no taskbar and no other icons. This has also affected Vista and XP users, and has apparently been caused by a security update that was released on the 25th November.
If you are suffering with this problem, Prevx have released a fix that may or may not work which can be found at their blog here*. Microsoft are currently investigating, and have suggested users are to contact Microsoft Customer Support line should they experience an issue.
