    When I try and install the updates it says updates have failed 'cause they're updates for Office 2002 and I'm using the 2007 Beta.. and now it keeps popping up everytime I game and I lagout and get disconnected.. this is very annoying, anyone know how to make it delete the updates or just fix em?

    I know, but the annoying part is the fact that it keeps popping up while I'm gaming :|

    seems like you may have to turn automatic updates off, and check ms update every once in awhile
