All .NET Framework updates are failing

[AWS]

All .NET Framework updates are failing for me (including for 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0).  All frameworks are installed, and I have tried repairing and uninstalling/reinstalling them).  I can't apply any recent security updates for these (see long list below).

 Other updates such as for IE-8 and Win XP install OK.

 

With 20 hours wasted out of my weekend -- very frustrated.  As as see many, many ohters have been with .Net update problems -- there seems to be more on the web about this than any other Windows problems, and it seems most were never resolved.   End of rant.

 

What can I do to get the following KBs installed, my computer safe and (ha!) my lost time resturned by Microsoft?

 

The common installer report is:  "KBxxxxxxx does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your computer."  Very cryptic and not at all helpful.

 

Problem .NET KBs:

 

KB951847 for 2.0 and 3.5KB2742597 for 1.1 (needs a disk I don't have)KB2729450 for 2.0KB2742596 for 2.0KB2756918 for 3.0KB2736416 for 3.5KB2736428 for 4.0KB2737019 for 4.0KB2729449 for 4.0KB2742595 for 4.0
