Those are Office updates. Go to the linked page and choose the proper
update for the version of Office that is installed :
KB905754, KB905755, KB905649:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../ms06-012.mspx
In regards to KB904018, read this first :
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/904018
The link to download it is towards the bottom of the page.
None of those updates came from Windows Update, rather, they came from
Microsoft Update. If one opts in to MU then Aumtomatic Updates will
include Office ones.
Apparently the installation issue came from mismatched software controls.
Personally, I'd only use Microsoft Update in the " Notify me but don't
automatically download or install .. " mode. Make a note of what the
updates are and then either obtain them from the links in the Security
Bulletins or visit the Office Update page :
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/of...e/default.aspx
Download what's needed, save them, and when ALL Office apps and programs
are CLOSED, then install them.
