It's not a solution, but a work around. Most who are having trouble and do this work-around will likely be back next month (second tuesday and after) asking the same question about how to install some update because of a failure to install. Until they fix their updates system, it will repeat each month. Also - the easiest way to download any update Microsoft releases and do this manually is to plug the KB######'s into this web page: [URL]http://support.microsoft.com/kb/######[/URL] In this case: [URL]http://support.microsoft.com/kb/974234[/URL] From which you should click on the link for IT Professionals: [URL]http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms09-060.mspx[/URL] Where you can get the proper update for your version of Office. They will also want to check the original link given to ensure they meet the "Prerequisites to install this security update" and they might even utilize the section on "How to obtain help and support for this security update" to their advantage.
