KB886906 fails to install

How do I remove this update(there are actually two instances) showing failed
to install. I get error message 0xE0434F4d and have difficulty shutting down
my computer. I get another JIT error message on restart.

This is a royal pain!

This update tried to install several days ago. Since posting my original
message I found a solution using an item in PC Magazine's August 23 User to
User column. I stopped the "automatic updates" service in services.msc,
renamed the SoftwareDistribution folder in c"\windows, then restarted the
service.

Windows Update still shows the KB update as available for download but it is
no longer displaying any error messages either at shutdown or restart.
Previously it was showing the KB update as already downloaded but not
installed.

Thank you, though, for your suggestions.
