Security Update for Windows XP KB979482 Fails to Install

The KB979482 update continually fails to install with a 0x8007F007 error code. It has done so from Boot Camp 2.0 through 3.2. Windows XP Pro SP3 is installed and all other critical and optional updates have installed without problem. Currently running Boot Camp 3.2, OS X 10.5.6. As best as I can determine the error code means the update found the system waiting for a reboot following a previously installed update and cancels the installation. Of course there have been a number of reboots. I have tried to install the update with the Firewall and Bitdefender anti-virus on and off.
Any help is appreciated.

Ok slap me, the solution was too easy. Did a manual download of the update at the following address. Executed the downloaded file and the update installed. Checked that the updated was successfully installed by running Windows update and it no longer showed up as needing to be done.

  • Cumulative Security Update for Windows XP Service Pack 2 Warning!

    Not sure how many of you guys remember the problems associated with the Windows XP Service Pack 2 when it was first released, but the latest Cumulative Security patch completely disabled my Plextor 708A DVD drive and locked up Windows Explorer. 
    Here is the problem patch:
     o Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer for Windows XP Service Pack 2 (KB883939)
    It caused my Plextor 708A to give off two blinking Amber lights, which according to Plextor indicates the drive is defective.  Plextor actually tells you to get a RMA ticket and to return the drive.  Luckily I found it odd that my DVD drive became defective after I installed the latest windows update and tried uninstalling the 'fixes' before going that route.  Fortunately, removal of one of the 'fixes' solved my problem.
    If you find that your DVD or CD Player no longer works after doing a windows update, then do the following:
     o Go to Control Panel
     o Select Add Remove Programs
     o Scroll to the bottom and select Security Update for Windows XP (KB883939)
     o Click 'Remove'
     o Restart your computer
    I might not have the latest security fix right now, but at least my computer is running. 
    Stu:  Can you report this to MSI and have them get in touch with M$?

    i will, if this is a problem affecting a lot of users.
    has anyone else experienced this problem?

  • Security Update for windows XP (KB936021)

    Hi All,
    Many users are facing problem with BI Template builder after upading Security Update for windows XP (KB936021).
    If you load xml data into your BI template builder after updating windows security then you will see error <b>Compile error in hidden module module-starter</b>.

    Hi Ravi
    thanks for the heads up but I would rather you log an SR or a bug to alert development and we can get things fixed rather than make an announcement to the forum. Thanks for the workaround but many folks incl myself are forced to take security updates.
    I will alert the dev team and we will investigate the issue with hig priority.

  • Security Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB3042553)

    Hello,
    Security Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB3042553) has been advised to be critical update to deal with Vulnerability in HTTP.sys which could allow remote code execution.
    However due to some reason I am unable to apply the patch to any of the Windows 2012 R2 servers. It errors - The update is not applicable to your computer, when tried to install manually / locally.
    I tried to push it via WSUS and the patch is not getting detected by the servers.
    Regional language settings are set to match Windows display language (Which is English).
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue too? If so is there way to get this deployed please.
    Thank you.
    Kumar G

    Hi Kumar,
    I suggest you check the file version of Http.sys and compare it with the one documented in the KB article below:
    MS15-034: Vulnerability in HTTP.sys could allow remote code execution: April 14, 2015

    Hi Susan.  I hope there's a better 'fix' coming to replace this "uninstall the updates, restore, then reinstall the updates after the restore".  This kind of workaround requires that all of us remember that there's a problem
    with KB3023562 and KB3004375 from now until the end of WS2012E.  Not sure I'll remember this 6 months from now when the problem crops up during a restore.   -:(

  • QUICKTIME 7.1.3 SECURITY UPDATE FOR WINDOWS? Where is it?

    How do I get the security update (2007-001) for the WINDOWS version of QuickTime? Do I just download and install the standalone player again?
    As an IT professional who is constantly trying to stick up for apple in a pro-Microsoft world, I find it ridiculous that there is no mention of how windows users can protect themselves from this security flaw, at: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304989
    It only talks about the OSX version, and the updater in the windows quicktime player just tells me it's up to date with 7.1.3... but 7.1.3 is the only version affected by the security flaw!
    The bug:
    http://projects.info-pull.com/moab/MOAB-01-01-2007.html

    The solution for Windows clients is un-acceptable. This is a critical security flaw that could result of remote code execution and possible system compromise.
    We cannot sit back and expect thousands of enterprise users to manually go out and update QuickTime. Worse yet if they didn't enable the updater when they installed QuickTime.
    A separate downloadable patch for QuickTime for Windows needs to be made available ASAP whereas it can be deployed via existing distribution methods just like we do all other "Critical" security updates.
    When will a downloadable patch be available?
    If not, our only recourse may be to force the un-install of QuickTime as an unmanageable product.

  • With Cisco Secure ACS For Windows TACACS+, authentication fails with AD

      I am setting up a Cisco Secure ACS 4.2 server to act as a TACACS server for Switches and Routers  I am using Windows 2003 server for the ACS,
    and a Windows 2003 Active Directory server.  The AD server is fine, as it is used for many other things.
    I have set up ACS as defined nit he installation guide, including all the steps in the 'Member Server' section of the install guide
    when using AD as an external database (i.e. setting up the services to run with a domain admin account, setting up a machine called 'CISCO'
    on the domain etc).
    I've set the unknown user policy to use the Windows database if the internal database doesn;t contain the user details.
    If I add a user to the internal database, the authentication goes through fine, with an entry in the 'Passed Authentications' log,
    02/24/2010,05:07:03,Authen failed,eXXXX,Network Administrators(NDG) ,X.X.X.X,(Default),Internal error,,(geting error message as INternal Error)
    I've scoured google etc, and just cannot come up with any reason why this should be happening.
      I've followed all the install guides to the letter.  I need to get this up and running as soon as possible,
    so am looking forward to finding out if anyone can help me with this one!

  • Security update for 7.1.6 fails

    Neither my MacBook or my iMac will accept the latest Quicktime update. The download proceeds but before the install is successful I get the following message:
    "A networking error has occurred: Error NSURLErrorDomain -1005 (-1005). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again."
    Another update included with the Quicktime update loaded without problem. Don't recall which one is was.
    I'm sure I'm connected.
    Any suggestions
    SH

    What was this "other" update that installed sucessfully? I noticed that you are still using OS10.4.7.
    Did you repair permissions prior & after the installation? If not, suggest that you do so & try to install QT again. Make sure you repair permissions after the installation.

  • I-Tunes 7.4.2 with Apple Software Update for Windows

    When I upgraded to I-Tunes 7.4.2, I was also offered an Apple Softward Update for Windows. This failed to install. The error message said something about part of it not being able to run or something. Is this a Vista thing? I still have Windows XP and don't plan to change. Will I have problems with newer versions of I-Tunes? How can I get this Apple Software Update for Windows to work - or do I have to?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies, but what I am hoping for is a solution.
    Even though I asked, you never said if you have an ASU 2.0.0.21 ... so this solution runs the risk of being irrelevant to your situation. (It applies to the issue of ASU 2.0.0.21 on an XP PC returning an "invalid signature" message when trying to download an ASU 2.1.0.101.)
    If that's what you've got here, then usually a software installer bundle from Apple which contains a higher version of ASU than the 2.0.0.21 will install on the PC in question.
    (Avoid using the BonJour for Windows 1.0.4 standalone installer just at the moment, as a precaution. Last time I checked, about 20 minutes ago, that still contained an ASU 2.0.0.21, and that won't get you any further forward than you currently are ... assuming that you've currently got an ASU 2.0.0.21 in place.)
    So download and install another Apple installer bundle. Here's a link through to the QuickTime Standalone installer, although the Safari for Windows or iTunes installer would also work:
    Latest Quicktime Installers … get the one that doesn’t mention iTunes
    That should, as part of the install, update your ASU to version 2.1.0.101. To check on that, launch ASU ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"), go "Help > About Apple Software Update" and check the version number. If you're now at ASU 2.1.0.101, you're past the problem with ASU 2.0.0.21 returning an 'Invalid signature" message when trying to install an ASU 2.1.0.101 (assuming that's the particular problem you were actually experiencing).
    You can then uninstall QuickTime for Windows (or Safari for Windows, or iTunes and QuickTime and Apple Mobile Device Support, depending on what installer you used to update your ASU version) through your Add/Remove programs control panel.

  • Security update for flash player....did it install?

    Yesterday on dec 16, I had a window pop up on my comp telling me that there is some security update for flash player so I clicked install and it was connecting and everything...then I allowed Adobe systems incorportated permission and all that stuff which was normal....then the adobe helper stopped working and I got a message saying that it will have to close the program......now I don't know...did the updates install or not...what were the security updates so I can check...any advice?

    Hi, well DLM is Download Manager and sometimes it is used to D/L FP. It is supposed to disconnect after FP is downloaded. Go to Add/Remove, you should see Flash Player 10 ActiveX listed. If the Adobe Download Manager or DLM is listed Remove it from there and reboot. It is not supposed to be there after it serves it purpose.
    The version is 10.0.42.34, I hope you just made a typo:-)
    Also, if you are using IE, go to Tools>Manage add ons and look to see if you have listed Shockwave Flash Object......
    ActiveX......Flash10d.ocx and that it is Enabled.  Be sure to check in "currently loaded" and "have been used".
    In Firefox you would look in extenstions, add ons or plug-ins, look for SWF.
    In order for FP to operate properly, you need the ActiveX in IE and the SWF plug-in in FF.
    Thanks 

  • Security Update for exchange server 2013SP1 KB3011140 Stops all services and failes to install

    Hi All,
    Over the past 2 days this update has tried to run on the server in the evening but ends up failing. When it fails it is causing all of our exchange services to stop working and when we try to check e-mails the following day we find out the e-mail service
    has been offline since the update.
    Is there anything specific we need to do before running this update?
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    As what Hotaka says, this update is available from
    Windows Update. If it fails, we can also download and install the updates manually. The following stand-alone file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:
    Download the security update for Exchange 2013 Service Pack 1 package now.
    Download the security update for Exchange 2013 Cumulative Update 6 package now.
