CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
I've read several posts on this and have yet to see a reason/solution for the
issue. I have a workstation that WSUS contiuous to queue KB931906. Add/Remove
Programs list this update as being installed. Also, the WindowsUpdate.log
file indicates a successful install, followed shortly by a redetection of the
need to install the update. I can include the WindowsUpdate.log file for
reference if needed.
Any new ideas? I don't believe malware is at the root of this.

Check the file and registry key verification, please.
IF they are correct then there is a detection issue.

Re: CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
The file versions seem to check out; however, the registry shows either
HKLM\software\classes\capicom.certificates -OR- capicom.certificates.1 -OR-
capicom.certificates.2. There are no entries for a capicom.certicates.4.
Also, I found a second copy of capicom.dll on this workstation. It is part
of the HP System Diags installed by the HP printer software.. I think. Could
this be causing the update issue?

That could very well be why the update is being redected as needed and
why capicom.certificates.4 is missing from the registry. Is the other
capicom.dll the same Version as the one in the update or at lesser V. ?
Perhaps HP offers a later or updated version of System Diags.
This wouldn't be the first time that some bloated HP software has caused
a redection or installation issue with an update, chief123.

Re: CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
The HP version of CAPICOM is located at C:\Program
Files\Hewlett-Packard\eSupportDiags. I believe it is part of the HP All in
ONe software. He has a HP 6210 All-In-One. I ran the HP Update Software app
but no new software was queued up. The version of CAPICOM is 2.0.0.3.

BTW - The "up to date" version of CAPICOM is located at C:\Program
Files\Microsoft CAPICOM 2.1.0.2\Lib\x86 on the workstation in question.

I find no such information in the FAQ. Not sure what the result would be
but, you could attempt replacing the older, vulnerable capicom.dll with
the updated one and hope it doesn't cause an issue with HP's Sys Diags.
Or, better yet, contact PSS for free support with this issue as it is a

Re: CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
I thought of that earlier when I was remoting into the computer in question.
I try replacing the out of date CAPICOM.DLL. Thanks for the help. I will post
a result.

Re: CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
That didn't do it. I also tried the renaming of the
%windir%\softwaredistribution and WindowsUPdate.log procedure. Still queues
up. I even tried the following: msiexec.exe /fa capicom2.msi.
I noticed the KB931906.log is missing from the C:\windows directory. So,
even though Add/Remove programs has the update as being installed, it would
seem it is failing somewhere.

Re: CAPICOM KB931906 - Continuously queued to install.
Is the box manufactured by HP ? If so you could attempt to install it
from the root drive and use this syntax -
C:\CAPICOM-KB931906-v2102.exe /o
If that fails then contact PSS - 1-866-PCSAFETY
There is no charge for support with security updates.

CAPICOM (KB931906) CONTINUOUSLY TRYING TO INSTALL
Had this problem after being forced to format and reinstall my operating system. REALLY sucks and it's DAMN frustrating. I had a number of updates that simply failed to install. I contacted microsoft, and here is the answer:
1. Please download the file from the following link:
http://download.windowsupdate.com/wi...gent30-x86.exe
2. Save the file to "C: drive".
3. Click "Start", "Run", type: "C:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce" (without quotations) and then press "Enter" to install the Windows Update engine.
There is a space between "C:\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe" and "/wuforce".
Let’s now try Windows Update again and see if the issue has been resolved. Please let us know if this step has resolved it. If it has not, please proceed to the next step.
Suggestion 2: Register DLL files
=======================
By trying this step, we can check the update engines.
1. Close all instances of Internet Explorer.
2. Click "Start" and "Run", type "REGSVR32 ATL.DLL" (without quotations) in the open box and click "OK".
Note: There is a space between REGSVR32 and ATL.DLL
3. Register the files listed below:
REGSVR32 MSXML3.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAPI.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAUENG.DLL
REGSVR32 WUAUENG1.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS2.DLL
REGSVR32 WUCLTUI.DLL
REGSVR32 WUPS.DLL
REGSVR32 WUWEB.DLL
REGSVR32 QMGR.DLL
REGSVR32 QMGRPRXY.DLL
REGSVR32 JSCRIPT.DLL
If you are using the Microsoft Update Site, please register the following files as well
REGSVR32 MUCLTUI.DLL
REGSVR32 MUWEB.DLL
Note: Please register all the files. While registering each .DLL file you should get a "succeeded" message. If any error message is encountered, please let me know the exact wording.
For more information, please refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP installation
