PA Bear,

I think lippy might be referring to the "Root Certificates Update". The
only reason I say is that I have 25 computers failing to install this most
recent update via WSUS.

The WindowUpdaet.log claims it has downlaoded, claims to begin installation
and then teh next thing is alopp rerunnign the whole event if though it hasn
never happened yet.
