Autopatcher XP is a software that allows you to install Microsoft updates
without downloading the files from Microsfot servers.
it is a very good tool for an enviroment that doesn't have internet access or
a lab that's doing new computer installations on a daily basis.

All you need to do is download the update file, burn it onto a cd and run it
on any XP machines that has Service pack 2.

Once the Autopatcher XP file has been downloaded it doesn't need
to communicate in or out to the internet therfore the firewall settings got nothing to
do with that but thank you for trying to help.

I tried execute the exact same file with NAV 2005
and NOD32 with no problems...

Hi
Have you removed these other AV completely from your system, before installing KAV?
Please read this

I will download this pgm myself, and take a look.

If you have not installed Windows XP SP2, you can install the Critical Update for Windows XP (KB885626), and then install Windows XP SP2

This article describes how to resolve an issue where your computer stops responding (hangs) when you restart to complete the installation of Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005. This issue occurs on a limited number of systems that use a version of basic input/output system (BIOS) that does not have production support for Intel Pentium 4 and Intel Celeron D processors based on the Prescott C-0 stepping.

XP CRITIAL UPDATE (KB885626),  This update you mentioned, that is freezing your PC, can you check this. This update was for a problem with rebooting while applying SP2.
Quote from Microsoft website full article here

Thanks for all the info but the problem is not related only to that particular update.
I tired to installed that update seperatly and it worked fine.

I also tried to execute the same AutoPatcher  on a different hardware and got the same problem. Once I uninstalled KAS problem was gone.

Its got me thinking, that if you are applying an update (KB885626) that only needs to be applied with boot problems while installing of SP2, which you allready have installed and do not need, what other updates are you trying to install, and are any of these trying to overwrite files being used by KAV?

(Have you tried to install with KAV real-time file protection off?)

Yes, and I even tried to stop all KAV services but it still hangs...
I know that the XP UPDATES are not the problems... I think it's much deeper
then that and might be related to the way that the AUTOPATCHER XP is compressed
which concerns me becasue there might be some other products out there that using
the same method...

Hi
Have downloaded

Have noticed that the "critical"(Hotfix/security updates) and "non critical" updates are mixed up.
Have you checked what updates are correct for your system?

From your list, that you are installing:-
3 of the missing updates are in the "non critical" folder.

Now this is of course, from the installation on my system. It is allso important on the update order.

Hi
Just ran the Autopatcher while KAV installed, and as you said, it frooze the pc. (No time to try and trace)
So I ran the Autopatcher while in safemode, and all updates installed O.K.
