Outlook Express and others not working after doing a windows update

So I just did a windows update on my borrowed copy of XP and now my outlook express, icq, and a bunch of other program exe files are missing. Anyone know how to solve this problem other than reformating?

Maybe the update checked to see if it was a valid copy and found it was not so it disabled them.

My "borred copy" is giving me genuine windows popups every now and then.. I have like 5 oem copies that have come with pc's and laptops, but they're always stuck with that machine so i just download one i can use on them all.

Almost time to start buying OS's i guess ;)

It you have automatic updates activated with Windows XP AND a bootleg copy, you will experience problems. Microsoft has gotten extremely savvy with software theft.

Just pony up for a real one, though chances are you will have just as many bugs
