Story: Worm exploits major Windows flaw

That is very easy. The "cryptographic" service is - a service! In order to turn it on, go to the Control Panel and then click on "Performance and Maintanance", then click on "Administrative" tools, and finally, click on the "Services" shortcut icon (grey, yellow gear).

A list of services will come up, with their name, and startup type, as well as weather or not it's turned on.

If you look in the "C" listing, you'll see "Cryptographic", right click on that, and choose start.

You may also double click on it, and in the middle of the dialog box that prompts up, where it says "Startup Type", select the "Automatic".

Click OK, and Exit out. Then try to re-apply the patch and see if it works.

Hope this helps (If you even come back to read this).
