Morning Dan,

Thanks for coming aboard.

I tried the solutions given on the link you provided but my computer is still showing 
that KB971486 is downloaded and needs to be installed.

Since my Windows Update Review Page shows I had already successfully installed this 
update three times I used the directions given that pertained to when the Update 
shows as being installed.

I guess my only question right now until someone (me included) figures this out is 
since my Windows Update page says it is 'installed' as well as the entry for it in 
the 'Add/Remove Program' section can I consider it installed and I have no security 
breaches as a result of it? 

Or, since Secunia PSI says it isn't installed should I go by them?

Thanks and regards,

Phil
