With OS Vista x64, after the following Windows (security) Update: Security Update for Internet Explorer 9 for Windows Vista for x64-based Systems (KB2797052)
... the IEx32 browser gives the error "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" ... but, IEx64, Chrome, and Firefox all work correctly!
I've done all the recommended fixes, following a 'restore' to the date prior to the KB2797052 update, full functionality returns to the IEx32 browser. Then again, following this mandatory 'security' update loading, the IEx32 browser (and only IEx32) gives the same error. When I click off the WSAC protection, the IEx32 browser works fine.
Has anyone encounter this? All brilliant intuitions about fixes are greatly appreciated ?? :S

It could be any of the following as well, in addition to what TripleHelix mentioned:
1. We aren't interacting properly with IE because there is something wrong with IE that is being triggered by the update
2. There could be something malicious in IE
3. There could be something broken in IE (like a plugin)
4. There could be something not broken in IE until the patch is applied, and WSA is having a negative interaction with the broken item
5. It could be something else I'm not thinking of.
The first step should be to reset IE prior to doing the update. That will fix #2 sometimes, #3 most of the time, and might help with #4. In IE, that's found under Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Reset. Then run the update again and see if the issue persists.
If it does, take a look at your browser plugins and disable anything you don't need that might still be enabled. That's in Tools > Manage Add-Ons. If you need to restore again first before being able to get into Manage Add-Ons, that's ok, but do another reset as well before updating again.
If the issue still persists, and because of the possibility of #2 and #5, I'd suggest putting in a support ticket at that point so Support can take a look at your logs to see why this interaction is occurring.
