No, I don't understand why, as it can be caused by any of a number of
reasons. However will you in the Windows Update Newsgroup, which would be the
group to post to, find quite a few posts addressing this problem (and others
regarding KB931784 as well), by a search with "931784" being the key:

You'll see that advices recommending manual install (may be with removing
the KB931784 in case it is shown as installed) is frequently proposed, and
sometimes with a successful outcome.

To download the update manually via DownloadCenter:

Good luck,
