Cannot Scan for Office XP updates (September 11, 2003)

A

Ahmed Zunaed Shams

When I check for Office XP updates, I get the following
alert:

"Internet Explorer could not open the Internet Site
http://office.microsoft.com/home/office.aspx?
assetid=FX010404541033"

The Scan activity bar only reaches 40%. I do have
administrative privileges and there is no problem with my
internet connection.


I then go to the Office Download Catalog and download the
updates. When the computer tries to install the updates,
a Report Error Dialog Box comes up. The updates will not
install.

I tried to remove Office XP, or repair Office XP, or
reinstall Office XP, I get the following Alert:

"This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the
patch package exists and that you can access it, or
contact the application vendor to verify that this is a
valid Windows Installer patch package."

I have used Check Disk, Norton System works, system
restore, and Windows XP Repair, to no avail. I am trying
to avoid completing reformatting my hard drive.

Please help me.
