I have an 8400 Dell dimension using Win XP  with SP 2 - which  is 
approximately 4 years old.  
 
Now-------------------
 
This makes either the 4th time I have gotten and downloaded these  updates 
saying they need to be updated.  But the last 3 times, I noticed  the download 
'minutes' on each of them is 'zero'..... Is that telling me they  have already 
been updated.  I believe the first time, it said either 2 or 3  minutes it 
would take to do them.  Is something wrong with my puter or is  something wrong 
with MS..  Notice the minutes it has... and if it's already  updated... why is 
it still telling me to download them again and again and  again?   Harriet
