I am currently up to date on updates for Win XP. All of a sudden I have three
Windows update folders on my drive. All three folders contain the same file
"Update.exe". I cannot delete these folders/files from my drive because
Windows sill has them 'protected'. It says the file(s) may be write protected
or still in use.
How do I get rid of these folders/files ?

Thanks for any info and help.
