After the passle of updates from Microsoft the other day, there remains one 
that will not install.  It reports installed, so I get no error code, but 
after a few minutes, it asks to be installed again.  I had this happen before 
about a year ago, but I can't remember how I fixed it.  Any help out there?

Nevermind... just had a senior moment.  I remember now.... I deselected 
AutoUpdate, shut down, restarted and then manually installed the update, then 
reset Autoupdate to ON.  Seems to have solved the problem.... at least 
Autoupdate doesn't keep wanting to install it endlessly.  I sure wish 
Microsoft Update would fix this bug.

I spoke too soon.  The blasted thing has come back from the grave.... How can 
I kill it?

It looks like I am not alone.... a lot of people seem to be having the same 
issue, but no one has posted a solution, not to mention anyone responding to 
my post at all (but me :) )

I don't think it matters, but my system is WinXP Pro sp3 and Office 2007 
Enterprise.  I have been getting all updates auto installed without a hitch 
for the past year until this one.  Of about 10 updates in this last major 
download, all have installed properly except this one.  Any help at all would 
be appreciated.

I suggest you start by manually downloading the update from the Microsoft 
Download Center.  Reboot to safe mode to install the downloaded update.  Reboot 
back to normal mode, then visit the Microsoft Update web site and see if it 
still thinks the update is needed.

Post back if this doesn't help.
