Cannot Install KB933369

Greetings.

My windows updater is working fine for everything but this daylight savings
one, KB 933360. As I live in New Zealand which is one of the affected
countries I would like to install it. Each time it tries to install it fails.

I've also tried downloading it manually using...

http://support.microsoft.com/gp/dst_...bmit1=Download

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933360

The windows updater seems to download it alright but fails to install with
this error, taken from the final line of the update log.

AutomaticUpdates Failure Content Install Installation Failure: Windows
failed to install the following update with error 0x80070643: Update for
Windows Vista (KB933360).

When I click for help on this error it tells me to ensure that the office
source engine is set to automatic with delay instead of manual. I have
changed this and it has made no difference.

Any thoughts on why this update is not installing. Other ones in the same
list have installed fine. It's only this one giving me grief.

Error 0x80070643 is returned, and the extended error is 1000-1999 or
(0x3e8-0x7cf)
See if http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906602 helps

After much trial and error I fixed this issue. Turns out the Office Source
Engine was being blocked by a firewall. Windows Vista being reasonably new
there's not much around in the way of freeware firewalls. I was using a BETA
version of Comodo. Even though there was no indication of this specifically
blocking something during the install process it worked as it should after I
uninstalled that firewall software.

I guess there's a lesson to be learned about using BETA software that
operates at a system level...

Thanks for the reply though
