May I suggest MAYBE trying to download ONE at a time?? I used to have problems with a mulitpul download, but going with just one seemed to work.

Then, just try to install a few at a time?

I have been trying repeatedly to install them and they continually FAIL. The all seem to be 0KB. I have also sought help on the subject from MicroSoft OneCare Help section and even that does not work, I get an error message that an unknown application error occurred when try to submit my problem. I have been trying for two days. I am using XP Pro, Service Pack 2, I have 512 Meg of Ram and plenty of free space on my hard drive. I am also using the new One Live Beta from MS. How can I deal with these 7 updates if they continue to notify, fail and I can't seem to connect by email to report the problem. Will I have to wait for the proverbial MS Patch?
