Thank you for your reply. Running WJView shows that I have MVM version
5.00.3805 installed.

Since my last post on the issue I have now had another update fail with the
same error. So here's the summary of what has worked and what hasn't.
Please keep in mind there have been no changes to our local network
configuration recently and the VM update that failed to download orginally
failed in the same update session where the other updates succeeded.

Successfull:

.Net Framework 1.1 SP1
Matrox G450 Driver Update
KB831240
.Net Framework 1.1
WinXP Journal Viewer

Failed:

816093
KB836528

I'm still looking for a way to update the Microsoft VM. Any further help
would be appreciated.
