Good day,

I am using WinXP Pro SP1 on a single non-networked pc with 3 users.

I have a question concerning Microsoft Basline Security Analyzer.

When I run this program, it tells me that I am missing 3 security updates:
819696, 813360 and an update to MSXML 3.0

Now, when I go to Microsoft Windows Update, it tells me that my system does
not require any critical updates or any anything related to the above.

Microsoft first says that I need the updates, then they say I don't.

Anyone else run into this??

MBSA..

Yes, the MBSA is sometimes flaky. Are you using the latest
version?

Well, if the Hotfixes that the MBSA says you're missing are listed
as installed under the Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs applet, you
can safely conclude that the MBSA is wrong, I should think.
