My automatic updates don't seem to be installing. The update process goes
through these updates:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 Security Update
for Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP x86 (KB979909)
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 Update for Windows Server 2003 and Windows
XP x86 (KB982168)
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 Update for
Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP x86 (KB982524)
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 Security Update for Windows
2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP (KB974417)

They each say "done!" at the end but they dont seem to be installing. I
have closed down twice now to allow them to install but when I power up the
computer again the same updates are waiting to install. Any help would be
much appreciated!

There is no-charge for support calls that are associated with security
updates. When you call, clearly state that your problem is related to a

Copied яesponse from MowGreen

Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 Security Update for Windows
2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP (KB974417)

Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 Security
Update for Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, and Windows XP x86 (KB979909)

suggest you contact MS for *no-charge support* in getting them
installed.

The fix for those 2 will also get the other .NET updates
installed.

Do NOT mention the other updates or they will try to charge
you.

Just mention the 2 Security updates.

I have windows XP SP 3 and like other posters I have a list of several
updates most relating to MS Office 2003. None of these will install and when
running installation all attempts list as fail. I would be grateful for
advice to eliminate this problem
