| Failed Critical Update/ Windows Update I just updated Belarc Advisor and noticed a missing critical update. A view my update history shows that Windows Update has been trying to install this patch every day since April 8th but has failed every time.
Patch in question: »support.microsoft.com/default.as···;Q944338
Anyone else have this problem?

| Try installing Windows Script 5.7 and see if it resolves the problem:
»www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta···ylang=en
Installing Windows Script 5.7 should ensure that the scripting components are at the latest version.
You should then not need KB944338. |

| It is possible that the scripting files did not properly install when you installed IE7.
It is also possible that the scripting files may have been over-written with an older version as might occur by the installation of a third party program or manually installing an older version of Windows Script.
There is a good discussion of the problem in the following link:

Anyway, glad you got it fixed. |
