    I recently received about 16 updates from MS for my XP Pro SP3 PC. Five of the updates failed to install. I tried again when MS presented them again, and two installed.
    Despite several tries, three of the updates fail to install:
    KB2264403 for Office Excel 2003,
    KB2251399 for Office Word 2003, and
    KB2279246 for Office Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter.
    Has anybody else run into this problem? If so, have you found any solutions? (I used to experience something like this occasionally, but it has been a long time, and I have forgotten whatever I learned at the time about solving the problem.)
    Thanks.

      Have you tried disabling your antivirus software during the install?

      Have you tried downloading the fixes indvidually instead of using WIndows Update and applying one at a time?
