KB928366 update

I have been trying to install this update since 7/16. I've been working with
a M.S. support person. After doing everything she said & using some of the
methods from this board, I finally decided to use Sys. Restore and bingo, it
worked.
However, the yellow notification is still notifying me to install this
update. I scanned from W. update site. Results KB928366 was successfully
installed & history shows success X 2. My problem is getting rid of the
yellow notification. Any suggestions.?

I was wondering how you got it to update. I have uninstalled Net 1,2,3. Then
reinstalled 1 but I still can't install the update and of course I have the
yellow icon still as well, but it tells me it didn't install the update
either.

I not only don't at all know what .NET is, I don't know what the
vulnerability is that this update is supposed to fix, so based on
the horror stories like I'm reading here, not just this starting
thread, I just decided NOT to install it. Everything seems fine.

My question is: what is so important about .NET in the first
place, why are there multiple versions, and why are people
spending so much time and effort on something that may - or may
not - even be important? I would've thought by know that MS would
have fixed the fix and people would no longer get failures to
install, multiple messages even after they have installed, etc.

I'm not whacking on you or anyone but I just don't understand the
tenacity that so many people have in installing this one update.
I'm not into trying to push a string across a table and I don't
try to fix things that aren't really broken so if somebody
reading this can enlighten me as to what I am missing here, I'd
appeciate it.

Done before the Sys. Restore? Was the Sys. Restore based on a checkpoint
taken before that? ; )

Allow the update to install, paying attention to the modules which are going
to cause a reboot and ensuring that those modules get copied/renamed
during the reboot. If something is blocking that final step the update would
appear to be installed but always re-suggested. Search my posts for
reference to PendingFileRenameOperations for more explanation.

I had downloaded the update several times with no luck. Even removed Net
framework 1.1 from my computer. I have around 15 failed in update history.
So I used sys. restore in the safe mode, restored to 7-16, 0300. Then went
to windows update & clicked on update history and it showed that I had
successfully installed the update. I did'nt feel certain that that the
update had installed with success, so I did an scan & it revealed that I had
no critial updates. I understand that without the update you are open for a
hacker to take over you computer.
