Hi, beb1954.
Often, I find that the best time to run Windows Update is immediately AFTER
I've run Windows Update. :^{
Sometimes there are other updates that will not be offered until a
prerequisite update is in place. And sometimes a reboot is required to get
ready for the later updates.
Did you run WU again? Have you rebooted since installing those updates?
Which of the offered ones did you decline?
If you press <Win>+<Break>, what does the popup window tell you about your
Windows edition? (In other words, use the Windows logo key - often called
the Start key - like a Shift key while you press the Pause/Break key, in the
upper right of most keyboards. You may need to toggle the <F-Lock> key to
switch from Pause to Break. If this doesn't work, click Start | Control
Panel | System.) Specifically, does it show that you have Service Pack 2
installed?
