AutoUpdate installs over and over (KB2572073, KB2633880, & KB2518864)

I am running Windows XP and I run the automatic updates. Thing is it wouldn't install these updates

KB2572073
KB2633880
KB2518864

being rather confused as to how exactly it works, in fact, I sat down and watched the program of automatic updates to do its thing. He claims as 'done!', but he prays so I install the updates again shortly after.

See the article by Susan: http://msmvps.com/blogs/bradley/archive/2012/05/21/hang-loose-until-someone-in-redmond-wakes-up-and-fixes-microsoft-update.aspx

It's a bug that has been fixed.

[Edit adding]

If you still get updated them, maybe it's because they have already been downloaded to the computer and try to install.

You may need to empty your temporary download folder.

  • Another series of recent buggy XP SP3 updates KB2572073 KB2633880 KB2518864

    Tonight, both of my XP SP3 boxes receive 3 updates to .net 2.0 offered several times;

    KB2572073
    KB2633880
    KB2518864

    I find that odd, especially when we're between update cycles.

    Whenever I told it to install, it finally says "successful installation" AND THEN opens again (wteher I reboot or not).

    Happened to the point where I uninstalled .net 2.0 a box hoping it would disappear (it also has 3.5 & 4.0). Unfortunately the "control center" for my ATI Radeon 3450 'control center' would not go 2.0 is installed. Having convinced MS I wanted to install 2.0 & NOT reinstall 4.0 (although I also tried), I have the ATI utility works once more, but I still get these security updates provided on & on.

    Is this a real security problem, or should I just hide them?

    MS must have been aware of this problem. On the pc that I applied the fix, it re dl had its own updates & they installed. On the other pc, the problem simply disappeared.

    Hi John,.

    cancel your CAPS-LOCK

    It seems to be a mess of some sort on the server. Until that which is high to the square correctly, follow these steps.

    We will empty the download folder.

    Start > type cmd > then press
    type in
    net stop wuauserv

    OUTPUT

    NB. which temporarily stops the automatic windows update service. Your next restart of Windows, it will be again.

    Go to Windows Explorer.
    Look on your system (usually C) drive and see the name of the Windows folder. Like Windows or WINNT.
    Edit following as appropriate.
    If your Windows folder is C:\Windows. Look at this file
    C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\download

    If you find files in there, remove them. This file is where the Windows Update files are stored downloads.

    I'm curious as to why this problem occurred. It appeared that the updates were a size zero for them, maybe it was the problem. What ever it was, it seems to be ok now. Would be nice if microsoft let us know what the problem was.

    May 22, 2012

    3:53 EST

    I have on several occasions a prompt (yellow icon) download KB2572073, KB2633880 and KB2518864.

    Each refers to a malicious effort to attack my system by far.

    Earlier today, I posted a question here on this issue without stipulate 3 updates, but mentioned that I had experienced this problem.

    My previous message which is submitted to you earlier today is copied from my MS Word document and pasted below for guidance:

    Tuesday

    Normal time around 12:53

    IT IS A SHORT TERM PROBLEM, WITHOUT WHO SIMPLY CAN'T PROCEED TO WORK ON MY COMPUTER, BECAUSE IT'S GUESTS CONSTANTS UPDATE AND INSTALL UPDATES I'VE INSTALLED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT KEEP ONLY RECORDS NOT INSTALLED OR DON'T REALLY INSTALL.  I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS PAST, BUT THE YELLOW WARNING ICON APPEARING TO ME TO INSTALL WHAT I HAD ALREADY PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED.  PLEASE READ ON AND GET BACK TO ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE ON THIS ISSUE, BECAUSE WITHOUT HELP IMMEDIATELY, I WILL BE OFF TO WORK ON MY COMPUTER.

    I have Windows XP Professional on a Dell Dimension 8300 computer.

    I have an automatic update.

    This morning, the little yellow icon indicates there have been updates installed, so I clicked it and 3 updates to be installed, because it was the message I got, either never registered as installed, because I keep up several times the same icon on my screen and several times to install the same 3 updates.

    I tried several options.

    1. I tried the manual installation of my Microsoft Security Essential antivirus, which only caused the yellow icon to appear and signal install me 3 updates again.

    2. I then signed off the computer and found that on closing time, I received the message to turn off the computer through conventional where it would install case updates, so I went through this process, leaving the computer install 3 updates and then automatically shut down.  After that, I waited a minute, then turn on the computer, and once more, the yellow icon appeared and told me that there are updates.  When I went to install, that is, once again, the same 3 new updates, which I thought had been installed;

    3. I then went to my option on my "menu" of options, clicked on "Install Microsoft" which went to "Update priority", and yet again, the same 3 updates appeared as needing to be installed.  I hit the button on the screen to 'install', waited, and the message of the screen reported that they were installed.  But at the same time, the yellow icon appeared on my screen, I clicked it, and once more, the same 3 updates come "Setup."

    4. then, as I said, they you install, or they are registered not just installation.

    5. I should mention one other piece of information.  Whenever I tried to use the Automatic Updates feature (which is what I use conventionally to install updates), at the end of the process, the dialog box that appears initially the number of updates and classically, which indicates that you have to restart your computer for updates day is taken into account had not the message you have to restart your computer for the updates to take effect.  Off-chance that someone forgot to put the message in the dialog box, I restarted my computer and again, has received the message to go with the "turning point" in the order of the updates to install.

    6 now, as I type this, the yellow icon again appeared on the lower right of my screen, and it seems that it will continue to prompting me to 'install' these 3 updates forever, which is a problem.  I'm assuming that updates are necessary, because I'm on the internet a lot, and updates are updates to security.  I'm very faithful about the installation of the updates that I am asked to install, and I guess that there is therefore something wrong that prevents the actual facility to register as installed or who is repeatedly prompting me to install.

    AGAIN, THIS IS A QUESTION THAT, WITHOUT IMMEDIATE ATTENTION, WILL DISABLE ME TO CONTINUE WORKING ON MY COMPUTER.  I HAVE REQUIRE IT IMMEDIATE ATTENTION.

    Thank you very much.

    YOURS TRULY,

    ALLAN

    Since I posted this message for you earlier today, May 22, 2012, I got the yellow icon on my system after validation of it for you.  I signed and found on sign the guest to sign and install install 3 updates with closing time.  I'm out.  I have the House later, turned on my system came and again, found the yellow icon.

    This time, I decided that this may have had something to do with the fact that the last time that I reinstalled my Microsoft Security Essentials software, instead of on the web, as I usually do, I did through Facebook.  I figured I would remove Microsoft Security Essentials the conventional way (Add / Remove Programs), and then reinstall it from the www.microsoft.com site, specifically the part of the security.

    But when I tried, I got a warning message that Internet Explorer has proposed will not far enough, because the Internet Explorer has encountered a problem with what I was trying to download-install of Internet Explorer.  At the present time, I have so no software antivirus or firewall on my computer home.

    I then went to the scanner the www.microsoft.com site which downloaded without problem and ran twice, a quick scan which turned up nothing.

    This is a real problem for me, because at the present time, I can't work on my computer and it is connected to the internet and I am prevented to do any work, because I can not install 3 updates you tried to install on my system, probably to avoid malicious attacks on my system by far.

    I posted on signature in this site twice my Hotmail address and asked to be informed when there are comments.  This is an issue that requires comments immediately, because I am currently prevented from performing any work on my computer.

    Please help me as soon as humanly possible.  I'm rather desperate, because I can not work until I resolve this safety issue.

    Thank you.

  • Updated KB2572073, KB2633880 and KB2518864 appeared three times today

    Dear team of Microsoft and the community

    I seemed to have a problem not so sure and don't know if I've had this most early this week, but on 23/05/2012 between 16:00 and 19:00hrs, I received this update which consists of three, it was, updated KB2572073, KB2633880 and KB2518864.

    Since then, I came tonight and this update has appeared twice in the last two hours and now after I just installed, (I just checked) I would like to install again.

    It must be a problem with it.

    At the moment I am writing through my IE8 but I also had my Google Chrome before this mail and tried to open this Web page, but a small box came telling me about signing in but Goolge Chrome has let me not sign-in.

    Please could I get advice on that.

    Another site called Computing.net claims I have to uninstall Net Framework 2.0, and then reinstall it again.

    I have never been this deep in the Net Framework, so am very fragile in this unknown territory.

    Help, please

    Yours Sincerely

  • KB2633880, KB2518864 and KB2572073 keep trying to reload each time.

    Slight problem,

    KB2633880, KB2518864 and KB2572073 keep trying to reload each time.

    I have same manaully loaded them from the Windows Update page and even if it says updated successfully, the auto update tries to add.  I have entered the area to add and remove programs and looked for them in the updates, to see if their removal would be useful, but they aren't there.

    Bright ideas?

    Jon.

    Hmm, that's interesting. Put in operation the computer this morning and he stopped to offer them. They are not yet in the system, so I don't really understand, but at least I don't have the problem more.

  • Microsoft Update continues to request updated KB2518864, KB2572073, KB2633880, after that install and says it's successful. I tried to install 4 times.

    I tried to install the update of the files KB2518864, KB2572073, KB2633880 four times after whenever I would say it was well built. When I went to search for files to delete files before you try to download the files again and reinstall it using the Add/Remove on my Windows XP SP3, I was unable to locate the files. The only way I found to fix this was to remove the registry entries manually using regedit and use the file search feature and delete the files I found manually so. Then I had to update windows to inform instead of automatic download. I tried the Fix Center file also although did not. I can't locate these files to download on either windows update page.  If these files exist and need to be installed then I expect that Microsoft's COMPUTING service get this fixed a problem. My computer is a home based upon a business Edition step.
