I have removed Office 2000 from the computer (Windows 2000 SP4 +SR1)
I reinstalled office 2000 SR1 then ran SP3 then went to the office update to
get what was left.
Went back to updates now it only states that the Outlook Collaboration Data
Objects (CDO) Update: Security (English Version) is missing.
The other update [Outlook 2000 Update: December 18, 2002 (English Version)]
is gone (Assume it incorporated it when updated this time).
So reinstalling resolves at least one update.
Now if we can figure out how to get CDO update to stick (when I install it,
it says it was completed successfully but then when I go back to check
updates it shows up).
My early thought was that disk clean up ran and removed the temp files for
office 2000 [temp directories in my local settings and in the windows (for
some winnt) directory].
Due to reinstalling the product I think I might be on to missing files
during the new patch, if it does not see the logic (or files from the earlier
patch) then it can include it in the file re-build.
I am assuming the patch grabs the SR1 file from the CD (Which is required
even though I downloaded the full file patch) then applies the December patch
(which was download at the same time from office update) then applies the
January patch.
But I do not know what to do now?
I hope this helps someone and if anyone figures out how to get rid of the
CDO patch I am all ears.

After installing this update [Security Update for Outlook 2000 (KB892842)]
my Office 2000 install states it is missing [Outlook 2000 Update: December
18, 2002 (English version) and Outlook 2000 Collaboration Data Objects (CDO)
Update: Security (English version)]
So it would seem my office 2000 update has create more problems...
I would love to see if anyone else has this issue?
and what Microsoft is going to do to correct this problem...
Same problem. See installing today's Office 2000 security update
(KB892842) without CD part failed.
