This update keeps failing to install. I go and download the update and try
to manually install, I get an error saying "You do not have permission to
update Windows XP, contact your system administrator". Well I am logged on
as the adminstrator (I have tried both local and domain). Same problem.
PLEASE help me!

Yea I went to that first KB yesterday and downloaded the update. However
when I try to run it I get an error saying "You do not have Admin rights"
this is a common problem I am facing on all my client machines when trying to
update Windows. I still have not been able to get that resolved.

When I go to add the user, the "add" button is grayed out and I cannot add
users.

Perhaps something here:

If you receive the following error:

On one of the machines that failed, could you do the following?
1. Verify that you are a local administrator:
a. Click Start
b. Click Run
c. type: cmd <Enter>
d. In the command window, type: net localgroup administrators <Enter>
e. See if the account you are currently logged on as is in that list.
2. Open the Windows Update log:
a. Click Start
b. Click Run
c. type: notepad %windir%\WindowsUpdate.log <Enter>
3. Search the end of the Windows Update log, and find the error code you are
receiving, such as:
0x80070005.
4. Post this error message back to this newsgroup and thread.

Sincerely,

Pat Walters [MSFT]
