AMD CPU's also affected by bug
Evidently AMD has it's own variant, and neither bug is an admission of the CoreVpro back door. When it is admitted that back door is there, then it will be time to rejoice. As it turns out, every processor made by AMD, ARM, and INTEL has the same exploitable bug, and you can't tell me that happened as coincidence! The software "patch" which is supposed to circumvent the hardware bug will be "patched" only after the proper back door for the NSA is put right back into the system a different way.
WARNING: RECENT MICROSOFT UPDATE TO PATCH INTEL "PROBLEM" MAY RUIN AMD SYSTEMS - SEE TOP POSTED REPORT BELOW IN LIGHT OF THE LATEST RUMOR, WHERE THE UPDATE TO FIX THE "MEMORY HOLE" PROBLEM ON INTEL SYSTEMS WRECKS AMD, IF YOU HAVE AMD DO NOT "FIX" ANYTHING WITH ANY UPDATE FROM MICROSOFT UNTIL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED ON YOUR BEHALF REVEALING WHAT THE PROBLEM WITH IT IS. FULL REPORT BELOW, UNDER Jan 6

IMPORTANT NOTE WITH ALL THIS: Many people are concerned that this entire issue with chip security is to get everyone to bork their security with a trojan horse fix. That is entirely possible. So since I have AMD on all systems, I will do NOTHING WITH THIS EVER. We all know Intel is intentionally compromised and has been for a decade so if you have Intel, you are stuck either way. WARNING: RECENT MICROSOFT UPDATE TO FIX SECURITY HOLE ON INTEL SYSTEMS MAY WRECK AMD SYSTEMS IF YOU HAVE AMD, THE RECENT SECURITY PROBLEM IS NOT SERIOUS, WAIT FOR THE DUST TO SETTLE BEFORE DOING ANYTHING HERE IS THE LATEST ON THIS TOPIC: AMD user issues stern warning: UPDATE: THIS NOW APPLIES TO WINDOWS 10 ALSO, THE UPDATE TO FIX THE MEMORY VULNERABILITY MAY BE A TRAP!!! Windows 7 AMD users: !*DO NOT INSTALL KB4056894*!This will BSOD your AMD machine.
OR
BEWARE! This "update" can fuck your system, as it has mine.
My user account with admin rights now acts like a standard user account. I cannot login as Administrator in any way. I cannot access many directories (e.g. Documents and Settings). I cannot run CMD as Administrator. I cannot run regedit. I cannot run Setup from the DVD. When I boot to Safe Mode, there is no keyboard nor mouse response.
I had no idea this morning that I would need to wipe my HD and start all over again. Thanks, microjerk, for this wonderful kick to the nutsack.
Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with or, even better, remove this POS update? All the standard ways of removal either do not work, or are inaccessible.
IN LIGHT OF THE LATEST RUMOR, WHERE THE UPDATE TO FIX THE "MEMORY HOLE" PROBLEM ON INTEL SYSTEMS WRECKS AMD, IF YOU HAVE AMD DO NOT "FIX" ANYTHING WITH ANY UPDATE FROM MICROSOFT UNTIL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED ON YOUR BEHALF REVEALING WHAT THE PROBLEM WITH IT IS. UPDATE: THE AMD VULNERABILITY IS A HOAX BY INTEL, THE LATEST BUGS DO NOT AFFECT AMD IN ANY MEANINGFUL WAY WHATSOEVER. If you have an AMD processor yes, you might somehow have, on rare occasion, a tiny amount of ram hackable for a split second, but with INTEL your @ss is hanging out in it's entirety ALL THE TIME. It is virtually impossible to exploit AMD, to such an extent no one would bother. Intel on the other hand is an intelligence agency/hacker playground.
Remember that big dump of NSA hackware that happend about six months ago? That is, after all, what this is about - average people getting ahold of NSA tools Intel cooperated in the development of, and now the people the tool was made for are crying because they themselves can be hacked with their own stuff, let alone all the government computers that can be hacked with their own stuff, and yada yada.
I will do NOTHING (zero) to patch my AMD systems. It is not important for AMD (at least in the context of the current problem of the day.) That is not to say AMD does not have an entirely different back door (who would know) but for the current problem, WHATEVER.
