    At least most of them were for the older WIN 2000. But not all

    Apparently, MS is having trouble with the automatic updates.
    Until they get their act together, you should manually update by going to Windowsupdate.com.

    Microsoft struggles with patch

    Or try Microsoft technet, the installation from WU and MU sites keeps on failing, so I did it manually by downloading each update for my computer from technet.
    I do not need the VML vulnerability patch as I modified the ACLs on my system using a workaround method posted by Microsoft. And I set vgx.dll to read-only.
