From: Home User on 7 Apr 2005 13:32 I owe you an apology. I re-tried, and it did work, and I found the files after they were extracted. I found the ones you asked me to replace, and I did so! Hooray! Then, I rebooted, went to Windows Update, and I installed Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express 6 Service Pack 1 (KB837009) AGAIN! I rebooted, went back to Windows Update and SURE ENOUGH, it is telling me I need Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express 6 Service Pack 1 (KB837009) AGAIN! Now, I've been at this for several days, what is it that I am supposed to do next, Robert Aldwinckle? Did I miss something along the way?

You were at 823353 which should supersede 837009 (in spite of the anomalous KB numbers). In fact 837009 should have refused to install because all the versions of the modules you had should have been greater than or equal to all the ones it was offering you. > I rebooted, went back to Windows Update and SURE ENOUGH, it is > telling me I need Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express 6 Service > Pack 1 (KB837009) AGAIN! Now, I've been at this for several days, what is > it that I am supposed to do next, Robert Aldwinckle? Did I miss something > along the way? Do you now have all the correct versions of the 823353 manifest? I'm wondering if perhaps uninstalling 887797 may have regressed *its* modules to pre-331923 in which case you would be in the same boat with them that you were previously with the others that you replaced. Also, I'm curious to know if the ones you replaced stayed replaced. If not I would suspect that SFP is doing that even though you haven't been able to detect it yet. Again, having somebody else's working Windows ME to compare with would be helpful to you. Good luck Robert ---

I posted in another group and someone suggested I review archived threads. So I did. Here is what I found (see below). I tried it, and it worked fine! I then ran Windows Update and I got the message: "There are no updates available at this time." So, I am satisfied. Case closed! --------------------------------- FROM MICROSOFT TECHNICAL SUPPORT: From the case log, I understand that you always receive the notification to Install Security Update for Outlook Express 6 Service Pack 1 (KB837009).
