"Incorrect Command Line Parameters"

[Guest]

I've been pushing Windows Updates to about 150 computers on our company
domain through GFI LanGuard Security Scanner. Every computer seems to update
normally and quietly, except for one computer. Every time I try and push
updates to it, he receives the following error message (for every update):

Incorrect command line parameters.

Windows Installer. V 2.00.2600.1106
Copyright (C) 2000 Microsoft Corporation. All rights
reserved.
Portions of this software are based in part on the work
of the Independent JPEG Group.

[OK]

What causes this? There's nothing out of the ordinary with any of the host
names, and I just can't find a variable that would single his computer out
with problems over any of the other computers out here. Thanks in advance for
any help anyone can offer.

Open Explorer, Tools menu, Options and File Types.
Dig down for the appropriate extension( msp?).
Click Advanced button. The Action should be &Apply Patch.

Where it says: Application to perform this action ... you need:
"C:\WINDOWS\System32\msiexec.exe" /p "%1" %*
where WINDOWS is the OS root.
