RobertAdwinckle: Have you tried checking whether the modules are
actually being changed? ; o
(Something blocking them from being changed would be the most likely
reason for your symptom.)

msoe.dll version is 6.0.2900.3028

RobertAdwinckle: Are you trying to force this update? FYI it has
apparently been superseded
by http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms07-034.mspx
So an even more pertinent question would be why are you not being
offered
that one? (e.g. assuming your OS is XPsp2 as you claim.)

I have both KB923694 and KB929123 in my list of Add/Remove Programs.
So,
presumably, the reason why MS Update isn't offering KB929123 is because
it's already installed. Hmmm. Then, that contradicts what's happening
with KB923694 - i.e., being offered even though it's already installed.

Anyway, so what I did was uninstalled both KB923694 and KB929123.
Restarted. Installed KB929123 using the downloaded file from MS
Download
Centre. Restarted.
msoe.dll version is now 6.0.2900.3138.

Autoupdate and MS update now do not offer KB923694.
They're offering KB941202 which is also already installed in my
computer.
So I guess I should just uninstall/restart/reinstall from the Download
Centre each time I get an offer from AutoUpdate & MSUpdate for a hotfix
that's already installed?

Argghh.
I uninstalled KB941202, restarted, re-installed KB941202 using the exe
file
from MS Download Centre, restarted.
AutoUpdate and MSUpdate are still reminding me to install KB941202.

Ignore it.

Clear History, delete Cookies and delete Temporary Internet Files
(including offline files) via IE: Tools | Options | General, then log on
as Administrator (if WinXP Pro)...

1. Download KB941202, saving it to your desktop:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=3ed7f466-78c7-4251-ba24-8ae71ad54e18

2. Close Outlook Express, should it be open.

[Optional: Reboot into Safe Mode]

3. Rename the downloaded file to KB941202.EXE and copy it to C:\ (the root
directory of drive C; assumes drive C is the boot drive)

4. Start | Run | (type in) C:\KB837009.EXE /N:V (Note the space!) | press
[ENTER]

5. Close the command window & reboot.

I followed your steps above for KB929123 and then KB941202.
I rebooted before running KB941202.

I typed the command like this: C:\KB929123.exe /N:V (space between
"exe" and "/N")

In both cases, a small dialog box appeared indicating "Extracting files...."
Then, a larger box appeared containing these info:
available switches: [/help]...
setup modes...
restart options...
special options....

I have a screenshot of this box but posting to a newsgroup using MSOE
doesn't allow pasting an image. (Why are newsgroups so text-based?)

So it seems that neither of these hotfixes were installed since installation
didn't go beyond showing me a dialog box containing the various switches to
use with it.

When I search for Updates using MSUpdates, it offers KB941202.

Based on previous experience:
- it will offer KB929123 only after it has installed KB941202.
- And then, it will keep offering KB929123 again and again.
- If I tell MSUpdate to ignore KB929123, it will then offer KB941202 again
and again.
- If I tell MSUpdate to ignore both KB929123 and KB941202, it will
repeatedly offer KB911567...

So, why didn't installing KB929123 and KB941202 via the command prompt work?
Did I type anything wrong?
