Upates download but won't install

I'm able to download updates of Cumulative Security Update for Internet
Explorer 8 for Windows XP (KB972260), and 7 other security updates that came
afterwards for windows, however it keeps failing to install. No errors show,
it just says they fail to install. I have windows xp and avira security.
Know how to fix this? Thanks.
