Another quoting nothing of the original posting.
Same Answer...
What Operating System, Service Pack and 32 or 64-bit?
What troubleshooting have you tried?
Have you reviews the KB article associated with the update?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953297
(Specifically - the "Known Issues" section?)
I'd suggest:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923100/
Method 1.
Did you check you had the prerequisites covered (from the article above):
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...9-54D056D6F9F4
Have you attempted to download, save and install the update manually for
your Operating System version/service pack level?
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../ms09-061.mspx
After doing all of that - have you used the "How to obtain help and support
for this security update" from the KB article?
"For home users, no-charge support is available by calling 1-866-PCSAFETY in
the United States and Canada or by contacting your local Microsoft
subsidiary. For more information about how to contact your local Microsoft
subsidiary for support issues with security updates, visit the Microsoft
International Support Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/common/....aspx?rdpath=4
North American customers can also obtain instant access to unlimited
no-charge e-mail support or to unlimited individual chat support by visiting
the following Microsoft Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/oas/def...spx?&prid=7552
For enterprise customers, support for security updates is available through
your usual support contacts."
Come back - let us know if that helps!
As for your, "... and the si[z]e is 0 ...", it will be zero if you have
already downloaded it - as that represents how much you will need to
download.
