Hello!
I run a genuine XP that I regularly update via automatic updates. After installing th most recent update I was also informed that a new version (I suppose) of the validation tool would be installed (KB905474). It donloaded fine but it won't install! Thus I constantly get messages about a new update available. Very annoying. :)
If I could I would download a new copy of the update, but I can't find any direct download link, and when I use automatic updates it claims it has already downloaded all it needs and is ready to install (but the installation fails, of course.). I have been searching for an answer for some time but hasn't been able to come up with anything. I pass the online validation check on the Microsoft page, no problem there, and as far as I can tell from the report I'm posting below there are no license problems involved. Any tip would be much appreciated!
Oh, and I also tried this link
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=69498 found on the "please read before you post"-tab, but I can't access the page.
