Yes, actually, I did. I read through about 80% of them before I left for
work and everyone seems to be having the same problem.

I will download it manually (per your instructions) and see what happens.

Try a manual install. I did and the icon disappeared.

The Update team tells us that this detection metadata problem should be
fixed by now.

RE: KB937287 keeps showing up on my 64-bit Vista UE.

If you check your log of installed updates, you may find that KB937287 was
already installed successfully. You are prob. getting an error message when
you try to reinstall the update -- once it is installed it states that you
can not remove it. To get rid of the repeated update attempts I "hid" the
second version. I have the same problem with three other update "failures"
(KB905866, KB943302, and KB943899) all of which were previously installed
successfully but failed when a second attempt was made -- Again I hid these
three also. What happened with me is that I installed the updates when they
were first available on 2/12 and then a scheduled update on 2/13 of the same
updates created the "failures."

To "hide" an update (and thus stop it from trying to install), on the windows
update page there is click for "view available updates" -- click it and then
right click the update and a dropdown window appears with the last entry
being to hide the update.

RE: KB937287 keeps showing up on my 64-bit Vista UE.

The size difference more then likely is because the file from Windows Update
just checks to see what files you actually need installed for the update,
then downloads only what is needed. Where the manual process downloads
everything and then determines what files actually need to be updated.
