Thanks both for your response. here is what I did, I
created another account on this PC, with administrator
rights, and was then able to complete the update..
however, now when logging onto any other account other
then the new one the desktop takes about 5 minutes to
come up, and I have the following error messages in
system event viewer:
The server {BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E} did not
register with DCOM within the required timeout.

The app event viewer has:
The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during
its internal processing. HRESULT was 80004002 from line
44 of d:\qxp_slp\com\com1x\src\events\tier1
\eventsystemobj.cpp. Please contact Microsoft Product
Support Services to report this error.

I am currently researching this issue but would
appreciate any feedback that ayone might have

Thanks
