For the past three days, I've been notified of this update. When I try to install it... it's giving me an error. It says...

The software you are installing hs not passed Windows Logo
testing to verify it's compatibility with Windows XP. (Tell me why
this testing is important.)

This software will not be installed. Contact your system
administrator.

I am getting the same message when updates arrive. Have
tried some of the same "fixes" without any luck. Have you
found a solutionfor this?

Thanks,

As of last night (Jan 24, 2004), we do seem to have a solution for
this. It has stopped its updating on my test machine.
The thread is here:http://www.experts-exchange.com/Security/Win_Security/Q_20854592.html
Take a look, and hopefully it will help you.
