    Windows Update Critical Update Will Not Install

    OS WinXP.....SP3...IE7....Dell Dimension 4600


    I have a problem with windows update. I have installed all critical updates in the past but I cannot install a new one. I get this message
    "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP ( KB972260 )" Did Not Install.

    Any Help Appreciated.

    Hi

    At times they do go a bit funny and one may not install, I tend if that happens to get the full download and install it and that KB972260 is here

    Odd occasions an antivirus, antimalware app may just block an install, if you have spybot installed disable it to install if this happens again.
