Windows Updates Failing

Security Update for Word Viewer 2003 (KB917346)
Security Update for Office 2003 (KB917151)
Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB917283)

Those 3 updates fail continually.
Other than the viewer I don't have Office 2003 installed.
Can anyone tell me what I should do?
I use XP Home SP2 with all previous updates completed without problems.
Thanks, James

Hi James. For Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0
(KB917283) look at:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...9-49d0ac2ac9f2

And the reason Office 2003 Security Update is trying to install, is because
you have Word 2003 Viewer, which uses certain support files of Office 2003.

Thanks TKang.
I did as you instructed and the .NET Version 2 finally installed. The other
2 however continue to fail. I believe I will uninstall Word viewer.

Most likely the problem was the Office Setup Files where deleted when the PC
using the Disk Clean-up utility. Repairing office and then re-running the
updates would have succeeded.
