Actually update's name is update for VBScript and JScript Scripting
Engines and Windows XP SP2 itself is affected.
Why then this irrelevant error message ?

Using Windows Explorer [Start>All Programs>Accessories>Windows

Locate both jscript.dll and vbscript.dll
Right click them, choose Properties
Click the Version tab
Please post the Versions of both jscript.dll and vbscript.dll.

My version of IE7 is: 7.0.5730.11
jscript.dll - 5.6.0.8831
vbscript.dll - 5.6.0.8825
Running XP Pro SP2
Regards
1. Uninstall IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6) EXACTLY per
http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html [Only use the Command
%windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe if you cannot uninstall via Add/Remove
Programs!]
2a. Uninstall all toolbars and third-party Windows Themes (including Window
Blinds).
2b. Disable all Norton Add-ons, if applicable.
3. Reinstall IE7 EXACTLY per
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install <= Steps #1-8, #10 &
#11; take note of #12, then STOP!
NB: Use http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.mspx as the
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.
Tip: Save the installer to your desktop, do not Run it.
4. IMMEDIATELY go to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and install any
critical updates offered (e.g., KB944338). If a "Root Certificates" update
is listed in the Optional category, you might install it, too, to take full
advantage of IE7's additional security.

Details: Workstation running Windows XP SP2 32 bit with IE7 (installed as
downloaded from MS), all MS Updates applied through this month via WSUS 3.0.
Verfied jscript.dll and vbscript.dll versions as 5.6.0.8515.
Install of KB944338 via WSUS failed. I downloaded KB944338 for Windows XP
SP2 (for JScript/VBScrtip 5.6) from MS and attempted installed. I received
error titled "KB944338 Setup Errpr", text: "The version of Internet Explorer
you have installed does not match the update you are trying to install."
I am currently piloting this update, and have 20 computers onsite with
XPSP2/IE7 I'll rollout to quite soon. Short of uninstallating/reinstalling
IE7, is there a way to work around this error?
Thank you!
Install Windows Script v5.7 for WinXP SP2 (which should have been installed
when IE7 was installed):

Installing Windows Script 5.7 (available from the download center) seems to work.
Harry.
I'm not sure why the install of IE7 to this one computer didn't update
JScript/VBScript to 5.7 (no error messages were given during the IE7
upgrade), but I will upgrade JScript/VBScript on the computer.
Thanks again!

It remains a mystery to all of us at this point, Raillon.
