80070490 kb967723 but kb967723 was successfully installed 2 months

So what gives? Why does auto update continue to try to install this update?
It just started trying to (re)install this update again a couple of days ago.
I am also getting this for kb972145, which was also successfully installed 2
months ago.

The error is occurring because there's corruption in Component Based
Servicing.
You have two choices, the first may work, the second one will work:
1) Download and *save* the System Update Readiness Tool (CheckSUR)

Description of the System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Vista, for
Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7, and for Windows Server 2008 R2
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821

You will need to obtain the Tool that matches the system's architecture
and edition of Windows, which will either be for Vista/Win7 and x86
(32bit) or x64(64bit).
Open Control Panel > System
Look next to System type for the architecture of the system.

When the download completes, configure it to clean boot:
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows
Vista or in Windows 7

Now run CheckSUR. Restart afterwards and see if the updates are still
being reoffered.
If they're still being reoffered, go to step 2

2) Do an in-place upgrade (aka Repair Installation) of the OS.

You receive a "0x80070490" error code when you use Windows Update or
Microsoft Update Web sites to install updates

See the " Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 " section.
