microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer is not a valid newsgroup.

Other threads about this issue indicate the the problem was on MS's end and
that it was fixed c. 10 May-07.  Is Automatic Updates still offering you
831167 now?

I am using Windows 2000 service pack 4.  I get a reminder from Windows update
utility about new updates, and it never goes away even though the update
apparently completes successfully.  The update is a "critical update for
internet explorer 6 service pack 1 (KB831167)".  The closest article I can find
on it is:

http://groups.google.ca/group/microsoft.public.windows.server.update_services/ms
g/53d8b27fded669c3

The advice is to "Check the supercedence on the update and ensure it's not been
rolled up into a later Cumulative Update for IE6SP1".  I was wondering if
someone could provide an indication of how to do that.  Thanks.
