How to troubleshoot failures updating your Office installation from the Office Update
Web site
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304498

You cannot install an Office 2003 service pack
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=884298

Note, if Windows Live Safety Center Registry Clean-up has been used, then you need to
restore the registry keys that were deleted in the clean-up.

Use control panel "Folder Options", tab "View", to enable "Show hidden files and
folders"
Close all Internet Explorer windows.
Use Windows Explorer to navigate to folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\Windows Live Safety Center\BackUp\
and double-click the .reg file previously created by the Microsoft Safety registry
cleanup.
