Update will not install
I have had the little gold update shield in my system tray for over 2 weeks,
saying new updates are ready to install. I have clicked on it at least 15 times to install it, it goes thru the motions, says it installed, then about 1 minute later, the shield is back with the same update. Any ideas what the problem may be? Thanks. |

Mark..That is not the problem. I get no erroer messages.
I click the shield to install, and first get this: Size: 5.4 MB A security issue has been identified in Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) that could allow an attacker to compromise your Windows-based system and gain control over it. You can help protect your computer by installing this update from Microsoft. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer. Once you have installed this item, it cannot be removed. More information for this update can be found at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=88350 And then it intalls, and I get this: Initializing installation... done!

Update will not install
Check in add/remove if indeed it is installed. If so, check 'do not show
this update again'. If not installed, go to Microsoft (manual update and install). If successful go back to manual update and if shown, click 'do not show this update again'.
