Microsoft Security Essentials update KB2804527 fails. Ran the recommended "Fix it" and that failed.

[AWS]

In recent weeks, I've had a rash of customers, who've all had problems with Microsoft Windows Update across various versions of Windows.

 

Presently, this particular customer is running Windows XP with MSE installed. Windows Update presents MSE update KB2804527 as an important update, but it fails.

 

I've tried the recommendations I've found in the community, and I've tried to run the recommended "Fix It" tool on it, all without success.

 

I will try to get a live support chat or phone support session going with Microsoft, but am posting this to the community to be a "good citizen", so to speak. :)

 

Anyone solve this yet? What's going on with MSE updates? Why are they jamming so frequently across various platforms?

 

Thanks, in advance.
