Every day for the last couple of weeks, I continue to get
an update message (the little world icon) for Windows
Update 811493. I go through the download and
installation, which has not required a reboot. The next
day, the icon is back wanting to do the same update. It
never goes away! I checked and this update isn't even for
my Windows 2000. It is for XP.

Since getting tech support for problems is such a hassle,
even if the problem apparently is not mine, I am hoping
someone here can help or that a Microsoft tech monitors
this group. TIA

Actually this update does apply to Windows 2000 as well as Windows NT. The re-offering of the update is a known
problem and a new package is scheduled to put on the servers on 3/9/2004. The only change to the new package is to the
detection code, none of the Windows files that are updated by this update have changed.
