    error in installing windows security patch
    « on: March 08, 2007, 04:51:31 PM »
    Hi,

    just wonder if i can get some help here.

    I've been getting this windows update icon down at the right hand bottom corner. When i clicked it, it said "installing updates..." Then, it went disappear. Next a minute, it appears again and requiring me to click it to get the update. I'm getting this over and over again. It's basically the same patch.

    Here is the description of the patch
    MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Update(KB927978)
    A vulnerability exists in the XMLHTTP ActiveX control within Microsoft XML Core Services that could allow for remote code execution

    I think there is an error in installing this security patch.

    Has anyone had any troubled with this?

    BTW, my desktop machine runs on XP Pro SP2.

    Thank you in advance

    Here is some info:

    Try downloading the update directly from the MS Web site instead of using Windows Update.  Once it is installed, Windows Update will not bother reminding you about it any longer.
