I was having the same issue as you. Install of Windows2000-KB922582-x86-ENU.EXE
fixed the problem (those other links were not correct)

This didn't help either.

Yes, but what happens when you install it? What's the word for word error message?


"done"
"You have successfully updated your computer" ----> Close
2 min later: "Updates are ready for your computer. Click here to install"

In other words: no error message and I get the message that the update was installed, but the update reminder pops ups indefinitely and wants to install it again.
