Windows Update says I have Office 2007 but I don't

Hi. I usually download the Windows updates because I have multiple copies of
XP to update. Strangely on my "main" system, Windows Update says I have
Office 2007 and wants SP1 to be installed [it's in the optional section].

The only thing I have related to Office 2007 on my system is the
compatibility pack -which already has SP1 installed.

So why does it think I have SP1. [I never installed the beta.]

Also interesting is that the update is 50.1 MB. I checked the various Office
2007 SP1 updates and none are that large. I also checked the Windows Catalog
site and there is no update listed anywhere near 50 MB.

Ideas?

Thanks

Thanks for the forward. Didn't think one existed. BTW, I did check via MS
Update and not Office Update.

From the OfficeUpdate site, it wants me to grab a 11MB update [not 50MB].
The only Office Update update in that size range is the Calendar Printing
update.
