Can't install the latest Security Update for .Net

(KB917283)

Published on July 15, 2006 By dragonmage In Windows XP

Automatic Updates keeps failing to install Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB917283).
I also downloaded it from the microsoft website and ran it. The progress meter gets about halfway through then the window just disappears.
Anyone else having this problem?

It worked. Mostly. When trying to run Windows Update it seemed to hang, so I ran the downloaded update. It still took about 5 or 6 minutes for the update to install, but it worked

Thanks yraq!
