How can I remove updates for Windows Vista? Duplicates are KB976325, KB973917, KB974318. The system still wants to install updates and just duplicates on again once. First update list has 20, second and third about 18.

Duplication did not begin until I tried to load the list of updates.  Continues to tell me the same updates are available and download them if allowed.  Only the update that has been update group above that does not DOWNLOAD is Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Vista, which I am downloading now. When I go to 'historic day' to remove duplicates as indicated in the instructions for help. duplicates above are not listed. Of the; folding situation is on a Gateway laptop.  I am writing this issue on my Gateway PC.

LiveUpdate install updates for your Symantec/Norton application only.

Don't worry what you see in the installed updates or unable to uninstall the 3 updates, simply 'hide' and move.

1. stop the automatic updates service:

Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
Double-click automatic updates > click stop
(Stopping the service will take a moment)

2 remove the contents of the download folder:

Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
(type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
Open the download folder and delete its content
Close the window.

3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update |  View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right-click on KB976325 KB973917 and KB974318, in turn. Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.

4. start the automatic updates service:

Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
Double-click automatic updates > click Start
(Stopping the service will take a moment)

=====================================
To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.
