KB923980 keeps updating

No matter what i do, the fix for KB923980 keeps downloading and installing.
Although the fix is allready installed, almost every 5 minuties the system
nags me for downloading the fix. I rebooted multiple times (although it
'should be necessary), i removed the patch and then retried, but noway.
Very annoying, so finally i disabled Auto-update all together waiting for
MMS to fix this.

Same with me. Also the update history shows sucessful update. I removed all
the 3 KB's for this throught Control Panel then reinstalled from the download
site and still get the update notice after every 5 minutes. So far its only
for KB923980.

Maybe a little more infor would help those kind folks at MS. Running XP Home
SP2, just installed IE7, also have Zone Alarm, AVG and Spybot. I also used
Spybot and Eazy Clean to clean registry but problem was there both before and
after the reg cleaning.

I have exactly the same problem with my windows update... It keeps
downloading and installing that same KB923980 -patch eventhough it has been
installed succesfully. Hopefully this bug is soon repaired...

Same with me. I also just installed IE7. I clicked on advanced and then
clicked for no future notificaitons for this one. So those annyoning
downloads don't happen any longer, but the fact remains that there is still
an issue.

Same problem as well, also XP SP2, IE7 (+ firefox) and AVG.

Same pb. here:

XP home SP2, IE7, Firefox 2

Same patch problem here, IE7+ installed and Windows live messenger as well.
Another problem is that you click on inbox,any mails (hotmail) - it loads
live messenger every time (if its not already signed in).

The little yellow sheild is getting to be a little annoying. According to
"Update History" I have successfully installed KB923980 over 23 times. I have
tried everything I known from unistalling in Add/Remove to manually
installing to restoring the PC to a date before KB923980 was released. I even
edited the registry to include a key for the update. All failed.

I doubt IE7 is related to this issue since I successfully installed it on
several other PCs running IE7.

SOLVED. Scroll down to the bottom of this site.
http://www.amset.info/windows/auto-updates.asp
Reinstall the automatic updates service, or do all three, reset, repair
and reinstall, which I did.
An excellent helpful website I came across whilst sorting out the
windows update 100% CPU bug.

Uninstall the failed update from Add/Remove Programs in the Control
Panel. Next, show hidden files, folders, and system files :
http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

Navigate to WINDOWS\system32
Rename Nwapi32.dll to Nwapi32.old

Download the update manually from -

Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 —
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...c-44dc4a54f91e

Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 —
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...2-e4dbfc050667

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service
Pack 1 —
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...8-6cced2ee9285

Save it, close the browser, install it, and restart the system.
Revisit Windows/Microsoft Update to see if it's offered.

The files updated for XP SP2 are -

Nwapi32.dll
Nwprovau.dll
Nwwks.dll
Nwrdr.sys

They should all be at version 5.1.2600.3015
The .dll files are located in WINDOWS\system32
The .sys is located in WINDOWS\system32\drivers

Right click the files, choose Properties, then click the Version tab to
confirm that the correct files are present.

To confirm the correct versions are present in Win 2K and Windows Server
2003, go here :
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../MS06-066.mspx

Click the plus sign next to Security Update Information.

Thanks to Ariel Monaco for this workaround !
