Hi Folks: What happens is when I type a message in a text input box, I don't see what I've type until about five to six seconds has gone by. This happens on any Gecko browser. The same symptom shows up in Firefox (release), Firefox Nightly, K-Meleon and Pale Moon. The symptom is NOT exhibited in Vivaldi. If you go to this classified ad page: https://www.kijiji.ca/v-stereo-systems-home-theatre/ottawa/vintage-garrard-zero-100-c-turntable/1268246216?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true On the mid-right, click on the box that reads "Hi, I'm interested! Please contact me if this is still available." Erase what's there and pretend to respond to the ad by typing something. If I type two or three lines, it takes FOREVER to show up. This only happens on Kijiji (the classified site), and on a Gecko browser? I've cleared cache and reinstalled from scratch, but no improvements have revealed themselves.

Do you have this update installed? KB3163589 Out of Date Notification is all it provides. Remove it! Hope that helps

I think the reason for lag on those CPUs is less internal CPU cache. So less instructions can be quickly recalled. Someone else may be better to chime in though.

Ta-Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Thanks to SFC /scannow. I was able to update, but because it reset WinMail.exe to the original file, I have to re-apply the Windows Mail hack to get it working again on Windows 8. Oh and also MS Paint - I need to grab that again from Vista Thanks to everyone for their help. Cheers All!

Crap. I was almost hoping someone else had the experience. I just wonder what's missing on my system, especially when EVERY OTHER update works. Wow, I just can't figure this one out. I was even trying to go through the DISM and the CBS log just to see if I could decipher anything. EDIT/UPDATE: Went through clearing out the Software Distribution folder and re registering all of the DLL components for Windows Update. Still no improvement. If worse comes to worse, I will try both the rollup and security-only for August, and see if it updates.

Valiant attempt at a suggestion my friend, but alas it still failed. Now I had run a reg hack awhile that hid Libraries. When an update makes libraries reappear again, you can experience renaming directory issues. I re-hid the libraries again, thinking maybe this was causing file directory structure issues for Windows Update, but no, that wasn't it. Oh well, don't stress yourself greenhillmaniac, but do I appreciate your suggestions. It was a weird one. Maybe others will chime in with their experience.

Oh well. I'll have to further extract this cab, and then see if there's anything inside there. I can see the Cat files, and all the stuff that ends up in the component store.

I will do that later this morning. My cat woke me up early ....lol - It's 6am here and I've been up for two hours

I attempted installation of the monthly rollup. It has also failed. Be mindful of the fact that I've attempted uninstalling this month's Flash, IE10 and last month's security-only update. I then ran a cleanup of my Component Store using the DISM command discussed earlier. Then I installed the removed updates after a restart. They all worked. But not this month's rollup or security-only patches. It has to be something specific to this month's updates. One added not. I attempted running the Windows Update Repair Tool: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/instantanswers/512a5183-ffab-40c5-8a68-021e32467565/windows-update-troubleshooter Sadly, it also failed with a 0x80070002 error.

I also have an Error 2147942402 showing in the Event Log

Yes after several attempts (and making sure that I have the right update), KB4025343 (which is the security-only update for Server 2012) does not install on Windows 8. I get a 0x80070002 error show up in Event Viewer. Trying to run "DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth" to see if this fixes the issue, but it's just the single update Edit/Update: After cleaning the Component Store, the update still fails

Hmmm the main update did not install (KB4025343), but I'll have to check it out when I get home

Well I have updates for Adobe Flash (KB4025376), IE 10 (KB4025252) and Security-Only (KB4025343). The only .NET Framework updates appear to be for Windows 10. So time to install. I'll see you on the other side of the boot.

Does anyone know how I can source the Windows Defer 4.9 engine? I wonder if it will install and update on Windows 8 RTM.

Props to 2008WindowsVista, Burd and VistaLover for straightening out all of this. It's very helpful, but it's also illustrating the lessening options for x64 browsing on Vista.

Apparently, Waterfox and Cyberfox 52x both support Vista. In both cases this should include x64 support. Waterfox regular release post-52x have not been running on Vista however. Edit: Cyberfox v52.2 has removed Vista support. It was removed after v52.0 (however the developer cites that even the x86 version does NOT work - yet Firefox v52x does - WTF???)

Over at Bleeping Computer, this topic has also been discussed: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/648063/security-updates-for-vista-after-end-of-support-windows-server-2008-patches/#entry4268785

Who is the best moderator to contact regarding moving these last few posts regarding Vista updates?

Actually, I did mean to post it in that thread. Perhaps a moderator could move it for us ....lol. And guess what, I'll bet that I was the first one to even entertain the idea of manual extended updates for Window 8 from its "server" counterpart. NO ONE was even discussing the idea before I brought it up. And immediately at the time, I thought to myself, I wonder if that could be applied to Vista. Remember, this was October 2015. Even when I mentioned it on the DM Forums for Windows 8 and Vista, members there poo-pooed the idea. So I would put serious money down that I was among the first to even think of the idea.

Hey Look! We have copy cats over at Bleeping Computer ...lol https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/648063/security-updates-for-vista-after-end-of-support-windows-server-2008-patches/

I came across this on the K-Meleon Forum. Might be worth discussing. http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?12,141988

Meee too! Although, I do use Firefox compatibility in the Options menu. @Zollex, are you using the Goanna setting?

Is it just me, or does anyone hear Arnold's voice when they read geenhillmaniacs' posts? Sometimes I imagine the other posters as their avatar when they type posts.... lol. I imagine NoelC flapping his wings and making angry "caw" sounds when he unloads on Windows 10 ...lol. Am I the only person that does that?

I posted this over at sevenforums.com. I was told that most of the improvement that went into v2x was UI and stability related, and that most of the detection and cleaning ability in v1.75 was still as good. I wonder if two years later (since this thread was last posted in), is this still the case? https://www.sevenforums.com/system-security/240099-latest-version-malwarebytes-133.html

Ta-Daaaaaaaaaaa June updates are installed, and Windows 8 surived (or rebooted) to tell about it!
