Running Win XP Pro and IE8.

For about a week or so, when I shutdown, I see the option of
clicking to obtain a Windows update, or to shutdown with out
the update.

I have been clicking on the "update" part and I see the update
as being installed and then I do shut down. But the next time I
want to shutdown, I get the same option screen again.

I can't get to the "no-option" screen that I usually see.

Thanks

Roger

And the update's (or updates') KB number(s) is/are...?

WinXP SP2 or SP3?

Check your WindowsUpdate.log (%windir%\WindowsUpdate.log) for this
information as well as errors associated with the failed installations (one
assumes).
