No error messages, that is what I found odd. You can have the auto-updater install the "patch", but it doesn't take, as the auto-installer and the scanner still see the vulnerability. No error message in any log, auto-update installer. If I try to manually install any of the other "patches" for this bulletin, it indicates that it's not needed or that codec is not supported. ( I tried the XP and all Vista drivers just to be certain) What I am thinking is this is installed somewhere by some toolset other then where it thinks it should be, so am hunting for it...just not certain which items to search for. :) Best Regards, Jeff -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Murda Mcloud Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2008 6:17 PM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: RE: Help with MS07-042 - will not seem to install on this one laptop Error messages?

laptop
Hello the List! I happen to have a laptop, that does not seem to want to take the automatic security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB954430). Several scanners confirms I still have this one vulnerability left (I originally had 2), and went to the MS site, and installed manually (and successfully) on patch that removed the twin vulnerability, however this one remains. Manually attempting to
install
any of the other similar patches fails. Any ideas what services might be running that would cause this not to sync/apply? I'm actually considering asking MS for help, which I
would
prefer not to do, simply b/c it'll waste 4 - 5 hours of my time doing everything I've already done. Thoughts? Best Regards, Jeff
