[Slump Tester]

A little more info here - I just did a clean install today on another system and after I installed IE8 and rebooted, update got to the first screen and then puked.

Then I installed a security update for IE8 (IE8-WindowsXP-KB2618444-x86-ENU), rebooted and now the update seems to be working.

Thanks for the update. I got word that both IE8 and Chrome are crashing on the box I reinstalled XP on a few weeks back. Will tell them to bring it by and let me take a look. Virtual XP mode is working fine on my Windows 7 laptop.
