So then, how do you remove that type of update?

Given that, you would most likely not be able to use the wusa.exe utility to manage the update. That's probably why wusa.exe is telling you that it's "not installed."

As for pointing at the msu, when I download the update, it comes in an .exe, which when decompressed is an .msp file. When I enable logging, I see in the event viewer log a message that the update is not installed. Clearly though, based on the above, the update is here. Any thoughts?

I'm just curious. * Have you tried specifying the path to the MSU, instead of using the /KB parameter for wusa.exe?

This happens even when I have proven that the KB is present on the system! Am I missing something? I'm testing the command line manually before moving on to pushing this as a program in SCCM. I'm very puzzled. I get a catastrophic failure when I try to remove and update using this UninstallUpdates.vbs tool, found here (http://blog.coretech.dk/jgs/vbscript-uninstall-updates-on-winxpwin2003-win7-and-win-2008-r2-automatically/) I am perplexed.
