If you have EMET 5.0 installed it breaks IE11, uninstalling EMET cures this

Hacked servers turned against their own datacenter.
Canadian datacenter OVH attacked via  the notorious Shell Shock Bash-hole.
that seriosuly meant "pain" for the super-hoster .
800 servers were involved in the attack!
See how they went offline: http://status.ovh.net/?do=details&id=8120

Updating to EMET 5.1 (see Damian's link) before running MSU should help.

Potentially catastrophic bug bites all versions of Windows. Patch now

This again points out the importance of updating your OS and programs as soon as the updates are available.
Under normal circumstances, the sooner you update, the sooner you'll again be secure and protected against the
latest discovered vulnerabilities.

"Virtually All"... So I assume this means, Windows 7/8/8.1/10 and maybe Vista?

Well, lots of updates for us too do! Thanks for the info Pondus!

Apparently, the flaw dates to Windows 95 and newer.

Likely.  19 years is a long time for a vulnerability to not be well known by everyone in IT security, not to mention the hackers. :'(
