KB955428 update

Is there any plan to evolve this update to one that actaully works? Pretty
clear there are lots of problems here.

Why do you ask and why do you ask here?

I agree. This update keeps wanting the Works CD to be inserted. That is NOT
how is it supposed to work. Yes - inserting the CD may work - but why does
no other update require us to insert the CD? I think the update is flawed.

That package will still request the Works CD. Go here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

Just click the Change Language drop down window and set it to the
language that is sought.
When the download completes close all open browsers and programs.
Right click the downloaded .cab file and choose Extract All
Now run the extracted file.
