The updates are trying to be install over and over again. Every time I click "check for updates," there it appears again.

List of threads that have the same issue:
Media coverage:
Update 1: I have tried restarting the PC. Nothing. I have also tried FixIt when trying to troubleshoot Windows Update errors. Still nothing. The FixIt simply "runs" till the end and then says "finish." It did not offer to fix anything.
Windows 7 X64 SP1 with Norton Internet Security 2013 (version 20).
Update: I found other users having the same problem http://www.computerbase.de/forum/showthread.php?t=1252121 (in Dutch I presume). Translated page: http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computerbase.de%2Fforum%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D1252121&act=url
Update 2: Added media coverage of the issue.
Update 3: Add even more threads found via Google.
Update 4: Microsoft has now offered a statement regarding this bug:
“We’ve received reports of some customers experiencing issues when deploying some of September’s Office-related updates. We are investigating this issue and will act accordingly, to help ensure that our customers are protected." -- Dustin Childs, group manager, Microsoft Trustworthy Computing
Microsoft has acknowledge this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2760583/en-us
Known issues with this security update
Update 5: I did not have to do anything on my part (like re-install updates), so it's probably a detection issue on Microsoft's part.

Hi all,
just turning Window Update off gave me peace and quiet:).
In 2 or 3 days I'll turn it on again and look what happens.
If Microsoft hasn't solved the problem until then, I'll turn off Windows Update again.
And again ..
And again ..

Hello,
Why don't you hide these 3 updates temporarily instead of turning off windows update until a fix is issued? This way you'll get other updates and you never know when a critical security hole gets patched.

Hello, people!
First of all, I'm sorry for possible errors in English grammar or typing. I'm from Brazil and I can't speak English very well.
I don't installed the updates on my PC yet. But I searched for possible problems in each update released before installing them, and it brought me to this page.
I had the same problem on other occasions (like when M$ has released KB2823324). When this happened to me, I tried the solution described in this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910339/pt-br [text is in Brazilian Portuguese, but I think there is a translation for your language(s)]. I don't know if it really can solve this, but it worked very well for me at that time.
I hope this helps!
Somebody needs to be FIRED for this!
Same here...
I thought it was just me because I have some other issues with my PC lately.
Win 7 64bit
