Sorry, Mike. You had already given me what I subsequently
asked for. The site will be saved so I won't ask again.

Do you have any idea why installing a Borderbund Click Art
program would break critical updates?

Three cheers for Belarc! Hip hip it's broke, hip hip it's
broke, hip hip it's broke.

Thanks again, Mike.

Do you know of the MS site that I can download the
updates
Outside Of windows updates?

KB,

Please read my original post again. I explained exactly
how and where to
obtain the updates, that is from the Windows Update
Catalogue. This is
NOT the Windows Update site and unlike the Windows Update
site contains no
detection mechanism but instead allows you to pick and
choose which
updates you wish to download and subsequently install.

They're broken. You are correct.

No, I haven't installed ME over itself. The patches
show
as broken after installing Borderbund.

Do you know of the MS site that I can download the
updates
Outside Of windows updates? These patches don't show as
being available for download there. I guess I could
fish
through the registry and remove the keys you elude to
(if
you tell me which they are) but I'd rather have the site
so that I can save it and avoid touching the registry.

Thanks for your help, Mike. It's much appreciated.
