The general recommendation in the FAQ Prof. Ripley mentions works for me; so does switching of User Account Control (english?) totally. This may not be feasible for you on a corporate laptop. I tried the following method: Download the updates locally, remove the chm folder, install from local zip file. Works for some packages, but when a DLL is included, the story starts again, and you cannot remove these. So, sorry, currently no simple solution for corporate laptops where you don't have full rights.
