I have the yellow shield that tells me that I have a security upgrade to
install. I install the upgrade (KB93681) and the yellow shield disappears
only to reappear again. I checked the installed updates in the Control Panel
and it does not show that update. I went to Microsoft Upgrades and downloaded
and installed it again. It indicates that it has been downloaded and
installed. It shows that I have downloaded it and installed it at least ten
times, but it still does not show up in the control panel as being installed
and the yellow shield shows up again. Help!

From KB936181:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936181

> 1. Remove security update 936181 by using the Add or Remove Programs item in
ControlPanel.
> 2. Delete the Msxml4.dll file from the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.
> 3. Repair the previous installation of MSXML 4.0 by using the Add or Remove
Programs item
> in Control Panel.

The update will be listed as 'MSXML 4.0 SP2 (KB936181)'
Click the Remove button. If it is NOT listed or will not uninstall, show
hidden files, folders, and system files:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html#winxp

Using Windows Explorer [Start > (All) Programs > Accessories], navigate
to the WINDOWS folder [directory] and see if there is a
$NtUninstallKB936181$ subfolder. Open it and then open the 'spuninst'
subfolder. Double click spuninst.exe to uninstall KB936181.

Then navigate to WINDOWS\system32
Locate msxml4.dll
Delete it
Close Windows Explorer

Back in Add/Remove Programs, see if this is listed:
MSXML 4.0 SP2 (KB927978)
IF it is, click the Change button
That *should* repair MSXML 4 and replace the file you just deleted.

IF it is not listed and/or there is no $NtUninstallKB936181$ subfolder,
download KB936181 from here and SAVE it:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=021e12f5-cb46-43df-a2b8-185639ba2807&DisplayLang=en

Close the browser and any other open programs. TEMPORARILY disable the
installed antivirus/security software. Consult the Help file or visit
the manufacturer's web site to learn how this is accomplished.
ALL services of the AV must be stopped, too.

If this makes you uncomfortable while still being connected to the
net/network, then disconnect the system for now.

Install msxml4-KB936181-enu.exe now
Restart the system whether you're requested to or not.

PRIOR to reconnecting the system, REENABLE the installed AV/security
software FIRST.

Did that get it installed properly ?

The problem is it does not show up in the Add or Remove Programs in the
control Panel. I think I mentioned that in my basic communications
