Critical update Q823559

I ran Belarc Advisor and found 3 items that needed to be
reinstalled (upd323255, upd811630, & updq823559). No problem with
the first two, but I can't get 823559 to install. I checked my
installation history on windows update site and found that this
particular item failed multiple times back in Aug & Sept 2003, but
was finally successful on 9/17/03. The exe file is in WU folder,
but it will not go thru with the installation. What could be the
problem with this?

Try booting to Safe Mode and then installing the 823559 patch from there.

Well that didn't change anything. Any other suggestions?

Well I managed to get it installed finally. I went to add/remove
programs and it was listed there, so I clicked uninstall and it
removed it from the list. That's all I could tell it did, but it
let me install from the download and it is fine on the new Belarc
listing.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm sorry I forgot to suggest that you do what
you did as the update was probably being stopped by the registry entry
that denotes that the patch is already installed.
