Update Failure--XP

[MZB]

Ran it today as new updates just came out.

There were 5, but one of them keeps failing:

KB913446.

This is failing on my desktop and my laptop.

Suggestions (I ran my AVG anti-virus and it says no viruses)

Try turning off your antivirus program when you're installing updates.
(Don't forget to turn it back on when you're done.)

Download the update directly, then install it.
(It failed to install on my PC also, but this alternative succeeds)

This appears to be a wide-spread problem. The work-around works, but
perhaps Microsoft should look at this.
