You can download it from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../MS05-046.mspx

Are you sure of the source of that message?
Do you already keep your computer up to date?

You are using Panda an Windows XP Home Edition, right? Then the warning
message from Panda(!) is misleading you, since MS05-046 doesn't apply
for Windows XP Home Edition. Anyway, after installing KB899589 (alias
MS05-046) manually by following the download links in the Security
Bulletin, you'll get rid of the braindead warning message.
