Ok, I just went to Add\Remove and removed q823559 and then went to
windowsupdate and reinstalled and worked as far as QFEcheck and FF check and
windowsupdate Welcome scan [all worked] this time. I think what was wrong is
that this was in the Add\Remove during the reinstall of ie6 and just stayed
that way on the continuious attempt to reinstall the update.
The only problem I am having now is that the streaming video is not
displaying at Google News and probably elsewhere.
