I think these are the instructions I followed. The important step seemed to be deleting c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution

Unistall Windows Installer 3.0 or 3.1 from <Control Panel><Add or Remove Programs>
Download WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe to local folder (e.g c:\Download\) from Windows KnowledgeBase
Download WindowsXP-KB927891-v3-x86-ENU.exe to same folder
Reboot to Safe Mode (F8)
Delete folder c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution
Reboot normally
Click <Start> <Run>
Enter c:\Download\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce <OK>
Reboot
Run WindowsXP-KB927891-v3-x86-ENU.exe from c:\Download\
Reboot
Go to Windows Update site
Windows Installer3.1 will install automatically
Reboot
Go to Windows Update site and install updates

Well Mike I just copied the files into notepad as it said and all is ok. It installed 9 updates but 81 failed. I rebooted and now they have all installed! Bingo. Lets hope thats the end of it.. Should I start a new thread regarding my failed links problem? I thought it was just OE but it appears that links that simply say "click" or similar usually fail to open. I get a new page but no text etc

Great news!

Yes, a new thread might be a good idea as it will get lost in here!

All the best!
