I can't update this program even though windowds keeps telling me it's a priority update:
High-priority updates
Microsoft Office 2003
[URL="javascript:parent.fnExpandDetails(10)"]
[/URL] [URL="javascript:parent.fnExpandDetails(10);"]Security Update for Excel Viewer 2003 (KB936508)
[/URL]
Download size: 0 KB , 0 minutes (Downloaded; ready to install)
A security vulnerability exists in Microsoft Office Excel Viewer 2003 that could allow arbitrary code to run when opening a malicious document. This update addresses that vulnerability.
Is there a problem with virus ect that wont let me update?
Thanks,
Pete.

Anyone know what the problem might be? I thought it a little strange that the size is 0kb.
Could it be down to a virus?
I'm running XP with SP2.
