"Restore hidden updates" option will be grayed out until you've selected
either EXPRESS or CUSTOM. Please choose CUSTOM.
If you find that KB951478 is not listed as hidden:
Open Add/Remove Programs | Make sure the "Show Updates" box is checked |
Scroll down and confirm that "Security Update for Windows XP (KB951478)" is
NOT listed.
