I'm trying to install VS2007, but it requires some updates first. Whenever I

try to use auto update I get the following -

Problem: Automatic Updates is currently installing updates

Solution: Please wait until Automatic Updates is complete and then check

your update history. At that time, if the update has failed to install, you

can try installing it from the website.

Note: To view Automatic Updates progress, click the updating icon in your

System Tray.

 

Microsoft Windows XP

Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1 Service Pack 1

(KB928366)

Security Update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 (KB936181)

Windows Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP

Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 (KB110806)

Windows Genuine Advantage Notification (KB905474)

Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - March 2008 (KB890830)

 

I've edited the registry to get rid of any pending updates, but it keeps

coming back. I also have a window popping up before the log-in screen, but

the information is corrupt ( a lot of random chars and boxes). I've also

deleted the auto update cache.

 

Anyone got any ideas?
