Bug? Signature verification failure on wsusscn2.cab, v 10.7

[AKN]

I updated to v10.7 and ran the program today, but it failed almost immediately with a signature verification failure on file wsusscn2.cab, as shown in the log snippet below.

I tried once on a Windows 7 VM, then again on my Windows 7 workstation, then re-installed and tried yet again, always failing with the same error.

So I gave up and installed v10.6.3, which is running flawlessly as I write this.

Coincidence. There are multiple versions of the catalog out there, and some are corrupt/not signed. Which one you'll get, is pure luck.

Thanks MS...
