Endless update loop on KB927779

I am in an endless loop on Microsoft Security Update KB927779. I have
successfully installed it many times. However, 30 seconds later, the update
Icon appears with a message to install it again. I did have a computer hang
on the first install. That error must have left a remnant that is causing
this problem. I am running XP Home with all updates installed. PS: This error
does not seem to cause any functional problems. I was going to try an
UN-INSTALL/RE-INSTALL however, a warning messages indicated that I could
corrupt other Windows components.

I have the same problem. Do you have SQL 2005 installed?
It seems it has to do with the MDAC version been higher that the one's in
the fix and the fact that the installed does not check whether the fix has
been applies or not to the installation. Hence tries to install, succeced
since it doesn't apply but log a failed installation and loop. (or something
like that)


Here is the installation log:
0.344: SQL DLL: ProdVer: CheckFailed: The product version does not qualify
for this update. Installed product version is 2.81.1117.0 while the update
requires version(s) MDAC 2.8 (2.80.xxxx.x)
0.344: SQL DLL: Custom return code: 17010
0.344: SQL DLL: FileVer: Info: File on machine at higher version than
update: DBnetlib.dll: package = 2000.85.1064.0, machine = 2000.85.1117.0
