Hi!

On my XP Pro SP2 english the Office updates always get failed to install.
Last month the two (Publisher and something else) failed, this month all
Office patches failed. The Windows patches installed well.

I deactivated the ActiveX in IE for OfficeUpdate and renamed the opuc.dll in
c:\windows, restarted and tried again. The ActiveX-install message came, I
installed it and looked for the office updates also on Office-Update-website,
but the result is the same.

Thanks for help in advance!

Thanks!! Method 7 helped me. The Office Source Engine Service was disabled
:-( Don't know why. I've started it and it worked.

Thank so much!
