Did you try to install it from the Windows Update page?
There is another option, which is to download and install
the patch manually. I've experienced a failure at Windows
Update from time to time, without ever learning why. Perhaps
the server is busy or somesuch. Would you be satisfied with
a manual download and install?

The patch is available for download on the following page:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-045.asp

There are several versions, each for a specific operating
system and service pack level. To determine the service 
pack level of your operating system, go to Start -> Settings
-> Control Panel, and click on 'System'. The 'General' tab
of the System Properties window will show you which service
packs you have installed.

Click on the appropriate link on the page above, and it will
take you to a page with a download link on it. Left-click on
the 'Download' link, and select 'Save target as'. Use the dialog
box to select a folder where you will be able to find the file
later, taking note of the file's name in the same dialog box.

Once you've downloaded it, use Windows Explorer to navigate to
the folder where you saved the file. Click or double-click on
it to start the installation. Be prepared to reboot the computer
when the installation is complete.

That should work, but if there's any problem, let me know.


Please do not rate this answer until you are satisfied that
the answer cannot be improved upon by means of a dialog
established through the "Request for Clarification" process.
