I have been trying to install this update for a couple of weeks...and it seems to install, but then gives me a message that it failed to install. I have never gotten a error number nor any reason for why it won't install. Today I went to this page: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8f588f7e-c4ed-42a0-b157-54b1eda60474&DisplayLang=en and tried to download it here. I followed instructions and it seemed to install, BUT, I got the error message (attached) this time.

I haven't a clue what this means...except that I'm missing something! I hope it's nothing totally serious.

Hope I've asked this question in the correct group.....my first time being here......

Thanks....
