I am getting a notification to install an update almost daily. It is a Security Update for Microsoft.NET Framework 4 on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 x86 (KB2487367) and also Security Update for Microsoft.NET Framework 4 on XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2008 x86 (KB2656351).

The publish date for these updates are 8/9/11 and 12/29/11.

I have these installed (obviously). Why and I getting notified to update this?

To be sure, you can check Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Update\Installed Updates, to see if they are installed.

Then you can, when Windows offers the updates, click on "Do not offer this update again", or something, can't find it now, since I don't have any at present.

It's probably a glitch. Nothing to worry about, yet annoying.

Why not uninstall .NET, do a registry check with CCleaner, defrag, reboot and reinstall .NET? To get a fresh start?

From what I am reading it looks like that option is above my computer intelligence. Any simple fix?
