Ohhh Microsoft! I pressume?

I've just spent an hour watching paint dry (or it seemed like that)!

I decided it was time to use the Windows XP (Home version) update icon, to
well, update me laptop.

So for quite a while on the DSL connection this long list of MS Critical
updates down-load. Then it starts to install them. Now all of a sudden I
start getting warning messages that the update will NOT be installed
because ----------Its not a verified Win XP software!!!!!!!

This is MS critical update software form the MS web site!

So, options, either there's something drastically wrong with my computer or
MS have dropped a rather large clanger. Anyone got any thoughts on this?

TIA,

Phil Martin.

If you're looking for simple, lose the computer and take up quantum physics
(just kidding!)
Good luck with your system. Hope the info helps.
