I have all of those updates except KB916846 on my XP Pro machine and I have NO problems.

I've just checked a couple of SBS2003/XP Pro sites I maintain and they have all those updates and are not encountering any problems either.

Perhaps you should investigate other causes before bad mouthing Microsoft too much.
