Since installing SP3 on all my machines, there is one update I try to keep
off as it messes up my Outlook Express? I have always been able to go to Add
& remove like Microsoft suggests on their site, but the list in gone? Is
there another way to get rid of KB941202. Thanks to anyone

No. SP3 includes all previously released updates for OE, including KB941202
(Oct-07).

In what way did KB941202 "mess up" OE? How's it "messed up" now?

KB941202 was a critical security update addressing a vulernability that
allows remote Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) servers to execute
arbitrary code via long NNTP responses that trigger memory corruption. You
post to this newsgroup via NNTP: Why would you want to leave your machine
open to this vulnerability?
 
eerm it may be naive of me to mention it but is the tick box saying "show
updates" at the top of "add remove programs" box ...ticked?

Have you installed SP3? Is "Show Updates" checked? Are any pre-SP3 updates
listed?
