in the same screen where you can see your download progress, after all the
files are downloaded it wil stop and say these files where not installed.

I would just say that I have the same problem. No matter how hard I try it
will not update. I have disabled anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall, etc. and
no luck. How do we get attention to this problem.

I hate to just take up space - but I have this same problem and have been
trying to figure out whats going on for the last 4 hours. Are we the tip of
the iceberg? Maybe someone will notice. No event log errors. The files have
been downloaded and just will not install. Individual files from Windows
download can be installed outside of Update.

I'm also having the same problem. I've removed installs to try to reinstall.
I still unable to reinstall security patches. I went thru steps in article
id 319585. Where is the spot or option, to select the downloads you need and
copy to hard drive and install offline. I'm running Windows 98 SE because I
lost use of internet in windows xp when I installed windows xp service pack
2. Removed windows xp service pack 2, but never could update windows xp.
Looks I'm going to have to reformat and start all over.

Please begin a new thread about /your/ problem.

I tried practically all of the solutions listed with no change. I did
however use the administration option to download and install the critical
updates. I am sure that over time this will clear itself.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
