Thanks for the tip, Budgie. I have XP SP2, Explorer 6 and my updates are
current. I don't know if this affects the registry, but I will back it up
with ERUNT just in case.

It is a known problem for Microsoft.

There is another work-around which involves modifying the registry, which is
in the Knowledge Base - Article ID 946627 of 19 Dec 2007.

However, deletion seems to work just as well!

I also had to set that particular update not to download again.

946627 is a download now. Page is dated 12/20/2007. I saw this
mentioned in reader comments on Anandtech. So instead of
registry hacking, now there is an executable to run.

Paul, just ran update from the above link with total success. I am keeping
all the information you and Budgie in a separate file for future reference.
I suspect (and would hope) that a future Microsoft update will include this.

Thanks for making this information quickly available.
