When I try to install KB873352 security update for officeXP , even after
manual download and in dos, I get the message:

Setup can't open reg-key
HKEY_LOKAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall\KB885884.

I suggest that you check the Security Permissions on that registry key.

In regedit, navigate to the key named above, right click on the folder
symbol beside the key name, and select "Permissions", and look at the state
of the Permissions.
