Not picking up MS patches - 1.Jul.2009 7:33:13 AM

I'm using Languard to patch 3 PC's, all running XP Pro SP3 with Office 2003 Basic, no antivirus software installed as yet.

Having run a scan Languard has pushed patches and service packs, however I went to Microsoft Update and it's showing another 12 High Priority patches to install, but repeated scans with Languard is failing to show these patches.

I've tried doing specific scans for missing patches, Top 20 SANS etc, but nothing is picking these items up.

Currently using Version: 9.0, Build: 20090313 and I forced an update this morning to re-download latest patch files;

Size: 10731338 bytes

lanss_9_patchmngmt_en.cab - Version 16 - Tuesday, June 09th, 2009
Added New Patches

lanss_9_vulns.cab - Version 17 - Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

lanss_9_troubleshooter.cab - Version 1 - Tuesday, March 24th, 2009
Improved troubleshooter accuracy

lanss_9_pythonlibrary.cab - Version 1 - Thursday, April 09th, 2009
Updated Python library

All installed OK with no errors.

Have I missed something?

Any help would be much appreciated

Martin

Hi Drew,

It seems to be inconsistent. Items like the software removal tool for June is but items like the install for IE8, KB969898 (Active X killbits) KB963707 (a patch for .NET), KB967715 (disabling Autorun features), KB961118 (unsigned Inbox Print driver issue), there are some others which also are not on the list.

Do you want the full list?

Martin

It may be easiest if you open a support request online at http://support.gfi.com/Support/support.aspx?lcode=en so we can examine a full set of debug logs regarding this incident.
