XP patches update causing major performance problems

Hi,

I have an AMD64bit processor with 1 gig of RAM and XP Home SP2. Norton
Internet Security installed.

I recently applied about 8 security patches including the upgrade to IE7 to
my machine.

The result has been that the machine now runs really slowly - web pages take
20-30 seconds to load instead of 1-2 seconds and the machine is really
sluggish with lots of apparent disk I/O although the task manager says
nothing is happening.

All this has happened as a direct consequence of these patch installs.

Any ideas on what I should do? Any idea on which patch has caused this
problem so that I can rollback?

Regards,

Steve.
