Hey folks, we got a bunch of boxes, running Windows XP and Office XP. Since we installed the Office 2007 Compatibility Pack, Office XP does not get updates anymore. Our WSUS provides Office 2007 patches for these computers but no Office XP, e.g. the urgantly needed Serice Pack 3.

We allready tried to remove the Compatibility Pack and Office XP, reinstalled Office but there was no change.

Do you have any hints?

PS: The Office XP has been installed from a compressed ISO, so no administrative installation point.
