As a follow up, this is what I did and it will work for everybody:
Exact procedure I had to do was this.
Uninstall Microsoft .Net Frame 2 from your system
Run cleanup_tool.exe
(

Reboot computer
Install Microsoft .Net Frame 2 (download first and install from computer)
Install KB917283-X86 patch (download first and install from computer)
Reboot computer
I downloaded everything to my computer and put it in a folder first.
My guess is that not everyone has to run the cleanup tool but it should
guarantee a smooth implementation of the patch. I had 1-xp machine that had
no issues at all. I had another xp machine that required only the
reinstallation of .net Frame 2. My 3rd xp machine and w2k machine required
the cleanup tool to be used. I recommend you do it all.
