  Just out of curiosity, why all these steps? Why not simply do step 9?

  1. #9 step alone can not have solved the behaviour & we wanted to be certain that no "leftovers" Norton formed the scr3wing things.

• Calendar for the end of the Windows XP SP3 security updates.

  I use one of the few programs that won't run on Windows 7.  I would like to know when Microsoft will stop support for XP so I can recommend to my employer when I need a Windows7 compatible program update.

  It ends April 8, 2014 (all support Windows XP, including security updates and hotfixes related to security, it will be terminated).

  And why you wait until then (2014), it's tome to upgrade your application and OS both. My advice is to move forward and not wait. If a program does not run in Win7 and then use it in XP Mode until your app Publisher write a new application compatible for Windows 7.

• Download Windows XP Professional SP3 update installers?

  I have an old computer running Windows XP Professional SP, and he needs an Ethernet card. Unfortunately, I don't have enough money to buy one for her. Is it possible that I can download all the updates that are released for it and put them on a drive flash or something to install? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Thanks for choosing Microsoft Community Forums.

  According to the description, it seems that you are having problems with the installation of the updates you don't have ethernet card.

  For the installation of Windows, the computer updates must be connected to the Windows Update server to search for updates. Unless you're connected to the Internet, you can not connect to the Windows Update server. Then I suggest that you use the media of Internet connection to check the updates, and install the updates.

  I hope it helps. If you have any questions about Windows in the future, please let us know. We will be happy to help you.

• Cannot update Windows Media Player security update

  I tried to download a book from library using Overdrive and it wouldn't work.  He said that I needed to update the Media Security Update window.  I did and I said OK to download the file, it gave me a message saying "a security upgrade is required to play this file. You want to download this update? "I said yes and he gave me a message stating:"the date of the certificate is invalid or has expired"the only option was to close or web assistance.  Help Web lacked all of the solutions and close terminated the option and left me in the same situation as before.  Any ideas on how I can get past this so I can down load books from library.

• Windows crashes after security update

  My computer does not restart after the update (as of 09/02/2011).  It tries to start, gets a blue screen of death, and then try to restart again and it never comes.  I put the recovery disk in and restore an earlier version of bring back the computer.  I turned off automatic updates and is not happy.  Can someone let me know what the problem is with this update?

  When it is appropriate to re-download the same security updates, I chose to not. We'll see how things are going.

  See this response archived from a previous thread:

• Windows media player security update

  I can't upgrade to the windows media player security upgrade for my overdrive media player. I go to tools and hit the upgrade of security and nothing happens. Went to the online version to be upgraded and I do not see anything to upgrade for windows 8 (which I hate!) All of the suggestions. I want to download my audio book. I can download MP3 format, but not WMA. Any help would be grateful!

  I had the same experience in trying to follow the steps of the OverDrive.

  

  I managed to get the upgrade by following the steps in this document.  Step 1 has a protected DRM file that you can play using Windows Media Player.  If missing the upgrade, since the upgrade button was grayed out on the site, you will receive a pop-up window to upgrade the DRM.  This should be the upgrade which does not work on the site.  Just make sure to play using Windows Media Player as my default player has been set up for a different program and it does not work.

  Let me know what happens.

• For Windows XP (KB973768) security update will not be installed. Could someone help me please?

  For a few months now, I constantly had the small yellow shield in the right corner of my screen telling me that an update is available for installation. Whenever I tried to install it but it fails. I tried just shut down the computer and let him move on his own, but that does not work either. I know it is probably not a security threat huge or essential to do my computer function properly, but it's a nuisance for me, and I want to solve it if possible. Apparently my computer is updated on everything with this exception. My OS is Windows XP Media Center Edition SP3. Could someone please help me to install the update or remove the constant reminder to install it?
