I can't imagine many of us will also experience the problem, but good on you
for letting us know.

This problem was solved - on the advice of Spy Sweeper - by turning off
the
Spy Sweeper BHO shield and then running the update.

Microsoft July updates included KB918419 for Excel. I received an
alert from
Spy Sweeper that a Browser Helper Object was to be installed. Since I
did not
see why Excel would need a BHO, I denied the change. The update
failed.
Should I allow the change?
Thanks
