Windows patch install

[Dan Harringa]

I downloaded the patch for the w32.blaster.exe worm and
attempted to install it several times. After receiving the
response "setup couldnt verify the integrity of the file
update.inf. make sure the cryptographic service is running
in the computer" I came to this newsgroup and followed
these instructions:

1. Perform Disk Clean-up checking all boxes
except "Compress old
files"
Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Disk Clean-up

2. Go to Internet Options in the Control Panel:
Delete Cookies
Delete Files (check box "Delete all offline content")
Clear History

Otherwise:
Start the Administrative Tools utility in Control Panel.
Double-click Services.
Right-click Cryptographic Services, and then click
Properties.
Click Automatic for Startup type, and then click Start.

4. If Cryptographic Services is already set to Automatic,
disable it,
reboot, then go back and set to Automatic.
Reboot

5. Start/Run
Type "msconfig" ENTER
Select "Normal Start-up"
Click OK, follow prompts and reboot

6. Start/Run
Type "cmd" ENTER

a.
Type "net stop cryptsvc" ENTER.
Type "net start cryptsvc" ENTER.
b.
Type "regsvr32 softpub.dll" ENTER.
Type "regsvr32 wintrust.dll" ENTER.
c.
Type "regsvr32 initpki.dll" ENTER.
Type "regsvr32 dssenh.dll" ENTER.
d.
Type "regsvr32 rsaenh.dll" ENTER.
Type "regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll" ENTER.

Close the box and install the patch.

After attempting to install the patch again I got the same
error message. What now?
