Did you install the Active X Control by clicking on the yellow bar see
this
link?
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/muoptdefault.aspx?ln=en&returnurl=http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en&muopt=6
If the first link is broken try this one
http://snipurl.com/lkrn

I have set out below the way to manually download updates. This was
written for the normal situation but you will be invited to install the
Active X Control. I think your problem is that you did not.

To get to Windows Update try this route. Select Start, Help and Support,
Keep your computer up to date with Windows Update and double click
Custom. The system then check on you and then your system to see
what you need. At the end of this stage under Select by Type will be the
number of Updates available by category. Click on Critical and it will
list
the details of those available. Check the option for each and every one
and then click on Install. You will then be offered the option to Save
to
Disk or to Run. Select Run. The process is then fully automated until it
says hopefully Successful or Finished. You then restart the machine.

Hope this helps.
