Hi

I use Windows Update for Vista Home Premium.

Every so often, about 5 times now, when looking for new updates it keeps
showing the same updates that I have previously downloaded.

Namely:-

Windows Live Toolbar 3.01; Live Writer; Live OneCare FAmily Safety and Live
Photo Gallery.

Why does it keep offering these as an update when I have installed them
already?
It always says installtion complete or succesful so whats wrong?

Any ideas please.

Thanks
Simon

Quickest fix would be to uninstall all of 'em and then reinstall using a
fresh copy of the Windows Live installer, Simon.
