Guest mangosteen Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 Running XP for the past 4-5 weeks, when I click on the yellow shield to install updates, it downloads, then supposedly installs, but the yellow shield never disappears/clears. I have gone directly to MS Update website several times, done Express updates numerous times, rebooted numerous times, still yellow shield. When I go to MS update site, I am directed to download install the following: "Security Update for Microsoft. NET Framework Version 1.1 Service Pack 1 (KB928366)" Download history shows the same update (KB928366) has been installed about 8 times in the last 4 days. I thought I was running Service Pack 2. Am concerned that my security is not up to date. Thanks

Search the internet for KB928366, and you will be inundated with posts. There is a detailed set of instructions for fixing the problem. I just decided to remove all of the .NET software because it really is just an optional feature. Jim

Every day when I start up my PC the yellow shield appears and wants me to download the update again, but it always fails to install. Rod
