I did all of the above. I shut down the PC, and I see it installing update.
But when I boot again, right away, I tell to shut down, and I see this
screen again, here it is

I just went to windows update again, and after it scans my PC it tells me I
still have to install the same security patch again! here is a screen shot:

The thing is, I now unselect IE 7, becuase I do NOT want to install IE 7
(cause it causes a problem with my HP scanner software).
Then I say install. And we start all over again. It install, I boot and it
still tells me I need to install this patch.

Here is a screen shot of the history:

you can see yourself how many times it installed the same thing.

Any idea what is going on??

thanks,
Nasser
