Default WDS 3.01 Won't install

WDS 3.01 Won't install at all

Running XP SP2 and recently installed Office 2007 (haven't uninstalled
office 2003 yet). Outlook 2007 wants the WDS application for instant search.

I downloaded 3.01 and ran the install. It extracted all the files and went
about a fifth of the way through the process (according to the progress
bars) and then stopped. After about a minute it reported "Necessary update
failed to install. Refer to C:\Windows|KB17013.log."

Looking at the log file indicates installation failed because: INF_REGISTRY
Failed

Another log file created at the same time" KB915800" states Setup
encountered an error: The update.ver file is not correct."

I tried installing using the MSI file rather than the EXE.

I then tried installing version 2.66 (I think that's the correct version
number -- it's the most recent one previous to 3.01 available on Microsoft's
site), and it installs Fine.

I then thought I could update and then installing 3.01 over 2.66.

No such luck, Failed, same error.

Now I don't have WDS installed at all.

I can live without it, but since Outlook wants it, I'd like to install if
possible.

Any suggestions?
