Repeated Automatic Update

I keep getting the same automatic update notification for "Security Update
for Windows XP Service Pack 3 (KB952069)." Each time I install, it reports
that it has been successfully updated, yet the same update message keeps
coming back saying it needs to be installed.

Thanks for the tip, that seems to have worked.

I have the same problem. Over and over. I have Media Player 11. I install
via Windows Update and it says successful. A few minutes the yellow shield
appears saying I have another update. I tried the stand alone install in
safe mode. Any ideas?

I have the same problem and I have the latest version of Media Player 11.
Whenever I shut off the computer it "successfully" installs the update but
there it is the next time. Also ran Windows Update several times -- always
finds the Update and installs it "successfully."

I just fixed the problem. I re-installed Windows Media player 11 from the
Microsoft website. I shut down the computer and the update installed again.
After start, the Windows Update site no longer has any updates for me.
