A security update (KB2584146) has been installed. After installation, it shows properly "installed". Yet, whenever I have re-boot or run Micrsoft update, it offers this update again. It shows also 'successful' in the history of my Microsaoft update. Win XP SP3 (Build 2600).

It's an old update. Wonder why you just get it now.

First try this...
Click Start > run > type chkdsk/r > press OK or press the Enter key. A cmd window will appear telling you that the volume is in use and you want to plan its next reboot. Type y and press ENTER. Then restart.
Try to install the update and check that it installed properly by doing another analysis of Windows Update.

If this does not do...
Download the update manually, on your desktop to the http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=28608.
Click Start > run > Browse. In the Browse dialog box, double-click WindowsXP-KB2584146 - x 86 - ENU.exe. The box open term should have the path now. Add a space and an x at the end.
Press OK or press the Enter key.
You will get a dialog box with the path to your desktop already filled.
After Office add a slash and the name of the folder so that we end up with something like C:\Documents and Settings\\Desktop\KB2584146.
Go to this folder, and then in the SP3GDR folder.
You can see packager.exe.
Right-click to copy.
In the box to run, type dllcache, then press on enter.
Paste the file in there, replacing the one already there.
In the run box, type system32, then press on enter.
Paste the file there too by crushing the already there.
Is there a lot of folder there. Make sure you do not paste in a subfolder. You want to the root of system32.

Go to Windows Update and confirm that it no longer wants to install.
