Security Update.

This particular security update is really getting me pissed off.

Microsoft XML core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB936181)

I have installed it so many times I have forgotten.
It seems every 10 seconds (no exageration) I get a message on the taskbar saying updates are ready for installing.

I install it and then 10 seconds later the SAME one is waiting to be installed.

If I choose not to install it then I get the mesage at shut down there are updates waiting to be installed... I know there is the option to shut down without installing so if I ignore it I get the message next time I start the computer.

Does this come across as a rant?? Probably not, as I am too polite.

Known problem



The answer seems to be install it separately- personally, I'd d/load it, boot to safe mode, install it, reboot.

Fanum,

Many thanks for your reply and link.

There was a mention of ,,,,,,Delete the Msxml4.dll file from the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder. I did a search and found I had that file twice (I think) and deleted the older one.

When I had the "offer" to install the same update I accepted it ,,,Now it says the update ,,,blah,blah(same as before),,,was not installed.

Have I screwed it up or have I "fixed" my problem.??
