Good Evening All
Yes, Ron, my problem is still recurring, so thanks for remembering me! However,
the update that I keep getting is KB967715 mostly on its own but sometimes
within a bundle of others.
It doesn't get called up every time I go to close down, but my " history" shows
that it has been successfully installed whenever I try. If I ignore it before I
shut down, it doesn't always appear next time; on the other hand, if I do
install it, sometimes it still does appear next time.
I can't relate its appearance (or non-appearance) with any particular
application or work that I have been doing during the session.
Like Ron says, it isn't urgent - I've lived with it for some time, even before
I raised it with Ron last March; it isn't really a "problem" just a b******
nuisance! But one day I will ignore it and not install some other important
ones when this one appears in the bundle! So it would be nice to make it go
away (but please note - if anyone does have any advice, I'm not confident in
doing very much more than pressing the odd key or two!!!!!!).
Happy Christmas to everyone!

Hi
Back last March Brian Robson reported a problem with repeated downloads of
Microsoft Updates. There was a little discussion about this but I believe the
problem remains unsolved.
On checking my update downloads for XP over the last few weeks I seem to be
having a similar problem; with the update for Microsoft Office Infopath 2007
(KB976416) bringing up an error code 0x57A
Searching various Microsoft and other help lines the solution seems to
require either a reinstall of Office2007 or a rather tricky edit of the
registry files.
Although Infopath is part of Office 2007 I have yet to find how you use it so
it would not bother me if I un-installed that piece of software. (Does anyone
know what it does ?) Otherwise the registry edit is something I would rather
not tackle having done it once on Vista I would not willingly do it again. At
least this time my PC is fully backed up as Mike Sanders recommendation.
Suggestions welcome so long as they don't involve throwing the PC out in the
snow. I think this one can wait until well after Christmas !
Bye Ron :-)
