Security Update 811493

[Jason]

Every few days I receive an update notification to
install 811493:Security Update Windows XP. I've
installed this update at least 12 times, but a few days
after install, I'll receive another notice to install the
update. I've even gone to the Windows Update Center and,
after scanning my system, find tat I need to install the
update. Is this the same update, or is it not installing
properly on my system?

I run Windows XP Professional, and have installed all of
the latest service packs and updates.

Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have a fix?

I am having exactly the same problem.

I tried the solution below, but the result is the same - I
keep downloading and installing 811493 on a daily basis.
