Update Install on shutdown hangs.

Last night when I shut down, the usual final screen came up but with a
notice: "Installing Update 1 of 4". Then: "Do not turn off or unplug...it
will turn off automatically". Had never seen this in the 4 months I've
been running XP. The problem was that the notice, still about installing 1
of 4, kept repeating for over half an hour. I finally turned off the power.
This morning I checked for updates and the 4 were in the recommended list
from Microsoft. I installed them ok.

Does what happened indicate that something needs to be fixed?
