When you try to approve the Microsoft Silverlight 1.0 (KB946609) feature pack from the Update Services->Waiting For Review node in the Small Business Server Management console, you may see the following error:
You can safely click Continue and proceed with the approval of the Silverlight Feature Pack.
The reason behind the error is that the update package metadata contains 2 URLs and only 1 KB article referenced. The SBS R2 code actually catches this situation and throws the error above.

Sad, another example of Microsofts poor QA, failure to follow thier own standards ( you have the URL/KB checking in there for a reason, right? ) and trying to push products not relevent to the installed products, which is what WSUS is for, right? Well at least this did not kill WSUS like:
http://blogs.technet.com/sbs/archive/2007/11/12/wsus-2-0-and-3-0-errors-on-small-business-server.aspx
or this similiar issue,

Learn from your mistakes don't just keep repeating them....please
Bizarre. Why would anyone think that the KB count and URL count had to match? Does the content specification require that all links have to point to KB articles?
