HELP: Compressor 3.0.2 Update refuses to install.

Question

I needed to install DVDSP CONTENT so I used FCPS2 Installer Disk. Unavoidably, ALL apps were re-intalled before the content loaded. So I downloaded all the app updates. All updated fine except Compressor 3.0. The 3.0.2 Update refuses to install. And, Compressor refuses to fully start-up.
There is a Receipt PKG for Compressor 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, plus Qmaster_Frameworks.pkg 3.0 and Qmaster.pkg 3.0
Removing 3.0.2 doesn't allow either Compressor 3.0.1 or 3.0.1 to install.
1) Any idea what's wrong and/or a simple way of fixing?
2) Is there a way of Installing Compressor 3.0 from the Install Disk WITHOUT returning all the other apps to their original state?
< WHY on earth does the Install UPDATE versions that are obviously newer with older versions? >
3) Will Pacifist auto-remove the current version of Compressor or do I still need to TRY to do this manually?

Interesting. Check one thing for me. Go to your Control Panels, click on Software Update, and see if "Download important updates automatically" is enabled. If not, enable it, then click the Check Now button. This will download the file to your drive, and you should see it.
If you do this, and the file still isn't there, then I'm stumped as to why it isn't downloading. Like I said, I had this same issue on both my computers, and the same solution worked both times.
Let me know how this turns out.
