All computers in our envoroment are XPSP2

about two years ago, tHere was a batch of computers that we chaged the
default drive via
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Program FilesDir
was set to d:\Program Files

I change that back to c:\Program files and all the Cummulative IE updates
that were failing now succeed.

However:
Those boxes show IE Version 6.00.2800.1106 - SP2 IS on these boxes.
All other boxes in our world show 6.00.29.2180

Windows updates thinks both are OK, ARE THEY? reinstall SP2?

Thanks for the time
 
Solution:
Change the reg Key back to C:\Program Files
Reinstall SP2 -- All is good
Stop tweeking the registry.
