??? Office 2003 SP3 on Office 2007 -- WHY ???

[Tom Baxter]

Hi all,

This has been driving me nuts for the past few weeks so I thought I'd
finally ask.

I'm running Office 2007. I do not have and never have had Office 2003 on
this machine. Nonetheless, whenever I go to the Microsoft Update site I am
constantly prompted to download Office 2003 Service Pack 3! I don't *have*
Office 2003, why is it being forced down my throat? I don't want to pollute
my system with unneeded updates.

Thanks to anyone who can answer this.

Tom

Check your add/remove programs for an earlier version of Office Web
Components (e.g. Office 2003 Web Components). If listed, this is why you
are being offered Office 2003 SP3.

Yes, that's it!!

I can handle it from here.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
