Directx websintaller 20th of november 2008 still does NOT ..

Thanks for your answer Paul.
However i'm not interested in what it's doing or supposed to do, I just
would like it to work!

Agreed.

The other possibility, is the web based version is running into a
combination of files on your machine, it was not expecting.
Does the dxwebsetup.exe create a log somewhere ?

Yes, dxwebstup.exe creates a log, (in setupapi.log), with the following :

[2008/11/23 15:29:09 4056.1]
#-198 Ligne de commande traitée :

Basically, the error that keeps coming back is "file not signed or
incorrectly signed".
Google is FULL of reports with the same problem (directx november 08 update
not working).
As a matter of fact Paul, I'm pretty sure if you try the directx
webinstaller november 2008 version on your system, it will fail too!

The DirectX November 2008 update web installer is missing
some files so it doesn't work. Use the installer from August,
it will work. I've uploaded my copy, if you need it:

dxwebsetup.exe 300 KB
