Default Microsoft updates

I have an icon in the ?tray (bottom right of screen) showing me "updates are
ready for your computer". They are "Security update for Microsoft Office
PowerPoint 2003 KB976881" and "Update for Microsoft Office Outlook Junk
Email Filter KB977713". Neither Microsoft PowerPoint nor Microsoft Outlook
are installed on the computer. When I go to download and install the
updates it goes through the motions of downloading the two updates but the
install fails. However, the icon remains stubbornly in the tray. Why does
Microsoft update identify the need for an update to non-existent software
and how can I remove the icon please.

Thanks..

Bill R
