Hello,
Using Windows XP Home SP2 all security updates.
Found in C:/windows/system/kb891711 - 891711.exe, Q891711.dll
Can this folder (kb891711) be safely removed ?

Take Care.

Hello, Appreciate your reply, thank you.
Read listed items before posting. There is no listing for WindowsXP SP2
needing KB891711.
This unit has been upgraded from Windows98se.
KB891711 is not listed in add/remove.
I was wondering if KB891711 is a left over from the upgrade and no longer
needed?
take care.

I don't know for sure, but that sounds reasonable.
