Have you rebooted?
Some updates do not have an uninstall option. If there is no uninstall
option, there will not be an entry in Add/Remove Programs.

If this Update does not appear as an item ('Windows Hotfix - Q832483) in
Add/remove programs, then the thing to do is use
Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore
and restore to a restore point made before you installed the fix
