I hate to say it, but thank goodness you had the same problem as me. I thought I was going crazy. After I installed the updates JDownloader stopped working and so did Downthemall in Firefox. I went through all the steps you did as well. I'm in the midst of uninstalling the updates, and as you said, I can't uninstall kb977348. Hopefully this will solve my problem.
Lot of work but i found the bad guy KB976538-x86.msu Windows NTFS - / 6.1.7600.20575 Hotfix report from Micro support: symptoms - Consider the following scenario: * You have a Windows 7 or a Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer. * You connect a 1394a external hard disk drive to a 1394a PCI card on the computer. * You try to resume the computer from hibernation (the S4 system power state). ..anyway after uninstall KB976538-x86.msu .. Jdownloader is running again, and not others probs found so far. Cheers, dry
