I got the latest windows update, but it has Microsoft Office XP Professional
with FrontPAge which it tries to update but asks to insert the 'Microsoft
Office XP Professional with FrontPage' disk which I don't have as I have XP
Home? I just want to delete this update or get rid of it. I have tried
deleting it from add and remove programs aswell as the clearing the update
file?
It gives me Error 1706 saying setup cannot find the required files. this
must be somewhere on my computer I assume but I cant find where to delete it?

Please help!!

Thanks

XP Home is your operating system, not a version of office. Office XP
Professional is an Office application.

The 'Microsoft Office XP Professional with FrontPage' disk is
the disk used to install Microsoft Office. If you do not have
this disk, you need to obtain a replacement.
