"after a Microsoft automatic update"

How can it be in 2010 that we still have to suffer this kind of thing?

For your information, you can build custom .NET installers that allow to avoid install XBAP and/or ClickOnce, or completely remove them, with this:

"… one thing to be said for the addon is background can be any colour of the rainbow which is nice."
*****************
Firefox has that one covered, too :-) Tools > Options > Content > Colors. Uncheck "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above". Then you can click on the color box labeled "Text", which, I believe, is black by default. The colours of the rainbow will appear :) Click on your desired selection. Then you can do the same for "Background" (white by default). OK > OK> So *both* text and background are configurable to 70 colors each. The page might need to be reloaded, depending on whether you also did the "No Page Style" thing.

To undo this one, just go back to Tools > Options > Content > Colors and re-check "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above". Again, reload if necessary. Your color selections will be saved for the next time you want to uncheck "Allow pages to choose…" Cheers!
