    i am unable to run the following critical updates from the
    windows update webpage.

    Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express 6 SP1
    (KB823353)
    Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 Service
    Pack 1 (KB832894)
    Critical Update for ADODB.stream (KB870669)
    Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components
    (KB832483)
    Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB819696)

    when i download and run each one separately i get the
    following error:

    Error creating process C:\documents and
    settings\user\local settings\temp\IXP000.tmp\IEupdate.exe
    Q832894. Reason: INNT\system32\advpack.dll

    i've looked on google and dogpile and both sites suggested
    updating visual basic which i've done. i've also tried
    with and without norton. i'm on windows 2000 professional
    sp4, ie6 with sp1. the only thing i did not try was
    system file checker. i have no trouble installing
    anything else, just these critical updates. i can also
    install other critical updates. i've scanned the pc for
    adaware issues as well and i have none.

    i know that the vb updates worked because i unpacked the
    updates and made sure of the date on the advpack.dll
    file. i tried with vp6sp3, vb6sp5 and a third vb6.0-
    KB290887-x86.

    any thoughts are appreciated.
