I think the offender is KB943055 because like I said in previous posts, I removed 
it and only added back a few other updates.  But just recently I went to Windows 
Update and installed all the critical updates it said I needed and all the other 
updates not critical but didn't install KB943055.  I didn't get the Software Distribution 
3.0 error.  

I did, however, have problems using my Excel and Word and it kept wanting me to insert 
the disk.  Not knowing which update was the culprit, I went back and uninstalled 
every single update it installed and am back to everything working good again.  I 
didn't really uninstall them, I just used System Restore because I had made a restore 
point before I installed their updates.  You might try that.  Create a System Restore 
point (start, Help and Support, Undo changes to your computer with Restore, Create 
a restore point) and then uninstall KB943055.  If you find problems, just restore 
and KB943055 will be back installed.
