problem with automatic updates and Microsoft Update in Windows XP Service Pack 3

My sister has a problem with the automatic updates. He has offered 6 updates and she moved them, but next time, she turned on the computer, he was offered the same 6 updates again. She has set up 5 or 6 times now, but she is always offered the same 6 updates every time she turns on the computer.  She tried yesterday to go to the web site Microsoft Update and update his computer, but it runs into the same problem. Microsoft Updates installed updates to update, but after restarting the computer and try to update again, he was offered the same 6 updates.

I try to help fix and I need help.

I tried stopping the service automatic updates, delete the contents of the download folder, update the Microsoft Updates web site and then by restarting the service of updates without result. She also tried to remove the 4 updates, she could find in Add/Remove Programs, but also without result.

Help, please.

Thank you

You will be unable to effectively hide or update except if you have finished #2 in my previous answer.

Or you can open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run the difficulty in DEFAULT and modes then AGGRESSIVE and then restart. [1]

  • I now have a problem with the update for Windows Live Essentials 2011

    I don't understand how it happened, but maybe someone could enlighten me?

    First of all, I was informed of an update for Microsoft Security Essentials. So of course, I did the update because I didn't want to be protected.

    I don't know if this is related somehow. I think that my update understood also as a Windows Live Essentials package. When I checked my e-mail and instant messaging, I noticed that the format has changed, and now, I think it's the new WLM 2011.

    It may seem very nice and put up-to-date, but it caused a series of serious problems for me. Let me explain:

    First of all, I must clarify that I am disabled and use the speech recognition, Windows speech recognition Dragon NaturallySpeaking both, because I can't use my hands.

    In the original WLM before the update, if I were using Dragon NaturallySpeaking, I was able to dictate with great ease and had no problem. If I wanted to then send the email I would say just 'send' and e-mail would go. With WLM 2011, if I say that now, it does not work.

    It's just a problem that I have. The next problem is much larger. In some cases, Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition will not work and I can't dictate anything. I then have to close WLM completely and then open it again. Then only, it'll work. This happens many times and it's very frustrating, as you can imagine for someone like me.

    Forgive me for saying, it may seem very well with all the new bells and whistles there, but it makes my life a misery at the moment. In my view, there are a lot of bugs that need to be sorted out first with her.

    My question is, can I go back to the original WLM somehow until the update meets my needs? Can I go back to the status quo when WLM 2010 worked well with speech recognition for me?

    If so, can someone tell me how to do what you please?

    If not, then how am I supposed to use these features now?

    Thank you
