That must have been it.  They are now being detected as being needed
from my WSUS server.  Thanks.

WSUS is set to download only when updates are approved.  I just approved
them so I'm not sure if they've made it to my server yet or not.

Have they actually downloaded to your WSUS server yet?

Subject: WSUS issue

I've got something strange happening with my computer (Vista).  On my
WSUS server I approved updates that came out today.  My computer found a
couple of the approved updates and installed them.  I then told it to
"Check online for updates from Microsoft Update" and it found two
updates that hadn't been installed

  Update for Windows Mail Junk e-mail Filter [May 2009] (KB905866)
  Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2009 (KB890830)

Those updates are approved on my WSUS server yet my computer doesn't
think it needs them when checking from my WSUS server - only when
checking from Microsoft.  According to the reports generated on my WSUS
server, other computers are showing up as needing the updates - just not
my computer.  What's up with that and how can it be rectified?

Thanks for your help.

Stop the auto update service, delete the contents of 
c:\windows\softwaredistribtuion. Restart the service then from a command prompt 
  wuauclt.exe //resetauthorization /detectnow.

WSUS issue

2009-05-12 Thread Jim Dandy 
I've got something strange happening with my computer (Vista).  On my
WSUS server I approved updates that came out today.  My computer found a
couple of the approved updates and installed them.  I then told it to
"Check online for updates from Microsoft Update" and it found two
updates that hadn't been installed

  Update for Windows Mail Junk e-mail Filter [May 2009] (KB905866)
  Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2009 (KB890830)

Those updates are approved on my WSUS server yet my computer doesn't
think it needs them when checking from my WSUS server - only when
checking from Microsoft.  According to the reports generated on my WSUS
server, other computers are showing up as needing the updates - just not
my computer.  What's up with that and how can it be rectified?

Thanks for your help.
