I know there have been some problems with the updates. The automatic updates
downloaded. The security updates did fine, but the following failed:

Security Update for Office 2003 (KB920813)
Update for Excel 2003 (KB929058)
Security Update for Word 2003 (KB929057)
Update for Office 2003 (KB925251)
Update for PowerPoint 2003 (KB929060)
Security Update for Office 2003 (KB929064)
Update for Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter (KB924885)


What do I need to do fix this?

I am not very computer knowledgeable so any step by step info would be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

There must be a problem with the Office UpDate site because I am Having
the identical problem even though I followed KB304498 in all its steps
all to no avail.
