Windows XP and Windows Vista updates-updates to update changes the two? __Updates is the Vista mess up to my desktop (Windows XP)

I tried to update Internet Explorer 7 to IE 8 in Windows Vista (wireless), but when I do it will also update my Windows XP to IE 8. Windows XP can't handle the update and it mess.
Why is that when I do updates on my wireless laptop my office is also updated?

Hello Internet Explorer 8 is compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 7. Updates usually for IE8 are pushed for Vista and XP at the same time.

Can you provide us with information as to what is happening exactly? You receive error messages?
