Error 89B in update

Hi

I am trying to install the three updates; KB973475, KB973443 and KB975958.
When I do I get a failure with error code 89B. Have been through the help
screens with no success. Anyone else out there have a solution to this
problem. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit), Microsoft Office 2003
on a dual core AMD 6000 system with 4Gb memory and about 150Gb spare on the
hard drive.

Regards

Martyn

The password parameter is invalid.

Well, that certainly does not help, do it ? Were the updates downloaded
automatically after the system was opted into Microsoft Update via the
Windows Update applet in Control Panel ? Or, did you manually download
them ?

Was the OS upgraded from Vista with Office 2003 SP3 installed or did you
purchase the system with Win 7 and then install Office 2003 SP3 ?

I know those are a raft of questions Martyn but, such is life in the
updating newsgroups these days.
