How to troubleshoot an update installation by using log files in Office 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/884290
The two main causes for Office update installation issues are
the Microsoft Office Source Engine (Ose.exe) is disabled or corrupted
or, the Local Installation Source has changed:
You receive an "Error 80070643" error message when you try to update
Office 2003 by using Software Update Services
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/903772
Office updates are not successfully installed if you deploy updates by
using Windows Server Update Services or the Microsoft Update Web site
after the path of the local installation source changes

REMEMBER, you can contact MS for no-charge support in getting the
security updates for Office installed. See my previous post for the info
on that, blueoyster.
