Patches fail

[Michelle]

I tried to install the critical patches today but for some
reason some of them would fail, specifically the Security
update for windows 2000 (KB835732) and (KB826232) . I
rebooted several times and tried to install them one by one

I do not have "Discuss" (in IE) checked and my internet
security is set to Medium as stated in the troubleshooting
area. This is happening to all my PC's in my company no
matter if it's a win 2k or a XP machine.
I can't find a place were I can just download the patches
to the desktop and install them manually or I would try
that.
Any suggestions?

My suggestion is consider yourself lucky, and don't install these patches.
Read my prior message and some of the others in this group to see what
problems you have avoided by not installing these patches. Some say the
problem is only with 835732, but I wouldn't trust the others either.

Both of these should be available via the catalog (see

with using the catalog).
