RE: KB951978 Fails to install updates win xp sp3

KB951978 is only for computers with VBSCRIPT installed.
Windows update should not try to install KB951978 if VBSCRIPT is not
installed but it does.
if you try to manually install KB951978 and get a 2 error messages about
scrrun.dll
try installng VBSCRIPT 5.6 for windowsxp the script folder wil be created
and the update will work.
