patches don't recognise sp1 installed

I've just downloaded to patches for IE6 SP1, numbers q828750 & q822925
but when I try to open them a message appears 'this update requires sp1 to be installed'

I have installed SP1 and the about box on IE6 confirms this

Any ideas about how I can get these patches loaded?

Download the patch to C:Go to Run and type there C:\patch name.exe /n.
There is an space between exe and /n.
And the patch is installe

I have the same problem. I have installed the patches,
and then when I try to install IE SP1, it says I need
Internet explorer 6. I have internet explorer 6, but I
tried to install it, just to make sure, and the computer
says I have it.

I cannot get into certain websites (i.e. ezboard.com or
hotmail) I did the going to the website and getting
what's installed, here's what mine said.

;SP1;Q832894;Q330994;Q837009;Q831167;

Now what?

Thanks

That "SP1" entry states that you already have IE6-SP1 installed. The rest
of the entries tell us that you're fully up-to-date at Windows Update.

Best to rely on Windows Update to tell you which patches and updates you
need, rather than picking & choosing ones you /think/ you need.
