Default KB911562 UPDATE

Kathie,

I'm unclear as to what problems you are now having.

I do not find any reference to KB911562 in control panel, add/remove
programs


This is normal.. Like yourself I have no entry for KB911562 in Add/Remove
Programs nor do I for many other hotfixes.

nor in "about I.E.". Is this normal?


Yes, and it's not really surprising since 911562 has nothing to do with
Internet Explorer. g

What I suspect may have been the cause for the failed "Security Update for
Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 (KB911562)" install via AU is that
this came down slowly and that in the meantime you had installed MDAC 2.8
SP1 and subsequently the MDAC 2.8 SP1 version of KB911562 from the WU
site.

Hello Mike,

I want to give you further information regarding the automatic update
that I wrote previously to you about, for which I have yet to receive
a reply. As of now, 4/27/06, the status of my system according to the
Windows update site indicates "There are no critical updates
available at this time."

As I mentioned to you, I got a successful install message at my
desktop for the "automatic update" for KB911562 on 4/26/06. However,
when I went to the Windows update site and viewed my installation
history, it shows that this failed (source: automatic update). I want
to note the descrition:

"Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 (KB911562)"

Whereby, on 4/25/06, the installation history shows there was a
successful update (source: web site) and note the description:

"Security Update for Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 Service
Pack 1 (KB911562) "

Comments?

And to recap previous posts of this thread, I installed on 4/25/06
MDAC 2.8 SP1 and then installed KB911562 in order to allow my HP
scanner software to function correctly (without script errors). As
the installation history shows, KB911562's source was from web site.

I do not find any reference to KB911562 in control panel, add/remove
programs nor in "about I.E.". Is this normal?

Looking forward to your pearls of wisdom.

Default KB911562 UPDATE

Thank you very much Noel for the information.
DUH on my part regarding I.E.
I have just been overwhelmed lately in getting my PC to function as it had
been prior to the 4/11's release of KB911562 and KB912812.
Thank you again!

The update status WRT the MDAC updates is perfectly as expected in your
circumstances.
The update is not a patch for IE, and therefore won't appear in the AboutIE
listing.
Updates do not always appear in the Add/Remove listing - usually because
such updates are not designed to be removable, for a number of (good)
reasons.

Kathie,

In a word, yes. Not that there haven't occasionally been problems with
updates, the 911562 update for MDAC 2.8 being a prime example.

Cheers and the best of luck,

Another question!!!
When I get the notification (globe symbol in system tray) and click
on it to take me to the windows update site; and have the scan
performed; the site knows which version to install on my PC? I have
been using this functionality as opposed to my manually searching for
the update. Your information is excellent, since I could easily
download the incorrect update had I searched manually for it.

I will await your reply, confirming most likely what I believe to be
true: using the windows update site, it will know which update to use.

Default KB911562 UPDATE

Thanks Mike for the explanation.

Regarding understanding my problems: I just thought that I needed to be
concerned seeing the status of "failed" for the KB911562 AU install...

However I am not to worry according to your and Noel's helpful responses.

And DUH on my part regarding not seeing the KB911562 listed in I.E. I do a
double g g

I gather from what both you and Noel had to say is that I should not be
reminded by Windows automatic update to do the KB911562 install. If this is
so, I will not miss seeing the windows update reminder "globe" in my system
tray every day!!!!

I thank you again for all of the great help and feedback.

And I am happy to report that I have been devoid of the KERNEL32.DLL
messages!!

Take care,

~ K

Default KB911562 UPDATE

Kathie,

You're managing to confuse me just a little. Are you saying that AU
(Automatic Update) is still offering you KB911562? If so then something
could be wrong since you say you have installed this patch for MDAC 2.8
SP1 and that it is not being offered to you on visiting the Windows
Updates (WU) site. AU should only offer you the critical subset of the
patches offered by the WU site although sometimes it would appear that
critical means different things to different people (for example in XP
with Office installed, and using the Microsoft Update site rather than
Windows Update, being offered the Outlook Junk mail filter and an Office
Update for the new Turkish Lira symbol).

And I am happy to report that I have been devoid of the KERNEL32.DLL
messages!!


And that is as it should be. Well done!
