    My computer tells me that I have an update for my system, but when it get ready to install...... it won't!!! it tell me the following message:

    SOME UPDATES COULD NOT BE INSTALLED
    The following updates were not installed:
    Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 Security Update for Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2 (KB953297)

    Anyone having this problem?

    I have framework 1.1, framework 1.1 hot fix (KB928366), framework 2.0 service pack 2, framework 3.0 service pack 2, framework 3.5 sp1

    I see all of them in my add/remove programs, I tried to remove frame work 1.1 since someone told me to remove it and reinstall it but it didn't work

    Were a whole bunch of updates being installed at once? I once had that situation and some failed, but I was able to install them afterwards.

    Nope, only one. it keeps bugging me that updates are ready to install but they can't... then few seconds later my system tells me again and try to install them again. and over and over and can't be installed. It bothers me
