So if anyone has been to Windows Update or Microsoft Update since March 25, you may have noticed a new update, KB943729, under Software Updates, the non-critical ones.

If you tried to download it manually thru the download center, you might have noticed that after installing, it still shows up in Windows Update/Microsoft Update. This is because the version in the download center is out of date. It was published on 3/6/08, whereas the version on WU/MU was put together on 3/12, even though it wasn't released for just over 2 weeks.

Anyways, I just wanted to point out that I have found a valid download location for the one on Windows Update, that is a direct link from Microsoft.

Either go to http://catalog.update.microsoft.com and type in the KB ID yourself and find the one for your version of windows, or go to http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdo...d734b36ff18.exe for the XP Pro x64 version.

You only needed to post this once and the other duplicates have been removed.

I've installed this update and it does not keep reappearing in Windows Update.

Thanks Similar issue with the vista version !!

I've had this problem with KB943729 as well. The only version I can find manually installs OK but then appears on Microsoft Update again. Are there really two versions out there?
