I had it happen to my home computer. I turned off AU, turned it back on, installed the patches and rebooted. Fixed the issue. I did not have the problem with my servers at work.

" For reasons unknown and unexplained, Microsoft pushed three .Net patches -- KB 2518864<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2518864> (MS11-044, June 2011),KB 2572073<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2572073> (MS11-078, October 2011), and KB 2633880<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2633880> (MS12-016, February 2012) -- out the Windows Update chute. If you happen to be running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003, with .Net Framework 2.0 SP2 or 3.5 SP 1, and if you're naive enough to leave Automatic Updates turned on, you probably got nailed with a yellow alert icon that says, "Some updates could not be installed." Click through the alert and you see that Automatic Update couldn't install any of the three patches." Here is the full article. http://www.infoworld.com/t/microsoft-windows/its-time-run-net-out-of-town-193939? Seen this in your environment or is this a controversy created by the Press?
