  I attempted to download the standalone installer from the Microsoft download center but running it produces this:
  Windows Update Standalone Installer

  ---------------------------
  Installer encountered an error: 0x80070003

  The system cannot find the path specified.

  ---------------------------
  OK

  Anyone have any ideas?
