From: PA Bear [MS MVP] on 9 Jun 2010 19:25 KB979906 was released on 08 June 2010. Open Internet Explorer (only) to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com | Select CUSTOM and scan | Install any Critical Security Updates offered (e.g., KB982381). If a Root Certificates update is listed in the Optional Software updates category on the left-hand side of the scan results window, install it to take full advantage of IE's enhanced security. Once you're done, return to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com & click on Show Update History in left-hand menu: What, if any, updates failed to install (KB number, please) and what, if any, errors are associated with the failed installs? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 Trekrod wrote: > For XP SP3 Prof 20 updates all are already applied and the new ones show > up > with 0KB size 0Minutes to install.

From: Trekrod on 10 Jun 2010 10:11 Hi PA bear, When I booted this morning the updates were automatically installed. While this usually doesn't happen it appears my company forced the updates to install on boot. I did check the history and confirmed that all updates installed OK including the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 Security Update for Windows 2000 and Windows XP (KB979906) on my work system. I am still having troubles on my home systems with the .NET Framework1.1 SP 1 but that is an issue for a different thread and different time. Those machines did not report a 0KB size. The only item that was not installed automatically was the Malicious Software one which I installed this morning with no issues. All other non-critical and optional except Live Update, and HP Printer Driver and IE 8.0 are installed Not installed by design: Hewlett-Packard - Printing - hp LaserJet 4350 (DOT4PAR) (NEtwork Printer) Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP (Not compatible with some applications I need for Work) Windows Live Essentials ( No need for Live access) I will keep the process and steps as a handy process info doc for next time to try and capture any issues that may arise. -- Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

From: Trekrod on 10 Jun 2010 10:11 Hi Harry, Thank you for the info. See my response to PA Bear on what happened today in AM when I booted up the machine. Makes sense but that was never done before by my system without me manually doing the download. Looks like my Company Policies may have handled something in background due to critical nature of some of the updates/security enhancements. -- Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

From: Trekrod on 10 Jun 2010 10:11 To all looks like I goofed up and reacted to quickly. Looks like group Policy had already forced the updates to download and was just looking for permission to install or install on shut down or boot up/log on The second item for the .NEt 1.1 SP1 for my work system went fine and I apologize for trouble with mistatement on this. While I do have issues with this on my home sytems that is an issue for a different thread and time. Again sorry for the false alarms. -- Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

If the MSRT didn't download/install via AU, chances are KB979559 didn't install. If such is the case, you may have a W32/Alureon rootkit infection on your hands. If the computer updates via WSUS, YMMV. -- ~PA Bear Trekrod wrote: > Hi PA bear, > > When I booted this morning the updates were automatically installed. > While > this usually doesn't happen it appears my company forced the updates to > install on boot. > > I did check the history and confirmed that all updates installed OK > including the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 Security Update for Windows > 2000 and Windows XP (KB979906) on my work system. > > I am still having troubles on my home systems with the .NET Framework1.1 > SP > 1 but that is an issue for a different thread and different time.
