I'd renamed the SoftwareDistribution Folder, I granted Full Permission Rights
and neither of these resolved the installation issue of KB929729. I then
found a solution from Chris Rowat.
Windows Update Icon appeared in taskbar soon after Windows Loaded prior to
installing the KB update. I installed the update then shutdown and let
windows update continue during the shutdown process. The update was detected
and when I booted up, Windows Update had been put to rest. The update was
detected.
Follow these directions:
Download and run the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility, and remove the .NET
framework 1.1 from the machine.
Download .NET framework 1.1 from the Microsoft website and install it
Reboot your machine, then install .NET 1.1 SP1 from the Microsoft website
and reboot your computer again. Then try to take the update once again.

..NET Framework 1.1 - This download took forever and never finished so I
cancelled it and went to FileHippo to download the file.
