Hello it seems that the problem that plagued me back in March 2nd is
now back Validation tool KB905474 fails to install just like KB892130
did

A potential fix has been posted previously in this newsgroup. Here it is
again:

A problem with registry key permissions may cause the installation of
KB905474 to fail.

These permissions can be repaired using Registry Editor as follows:

1. Click Start, and then click Run
2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK
3. Expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
4. Locate the subkey HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LegitCheckControl.LegitCheck
5. Right-click the subkey and select Permissions..
6. Ensure that groupname Administrators allowed Full Control
permission
7. Ensure that username SYSTEM allowed Full Control permission
8. Repeat steps 5-7 for the subkey
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\LegitCheckControl.LegitCheck.1

If that does not fix your problem, please post the contents of your file

C:\WINDOWS\WgaNotify.log

in a follow-up in this thread
