Did you download a patch for Powerpoint; KB2920732?
Microsoft pulled it because it breaks PowerPoint. Many users have reported that PowerPoint refuses to open after the update is installed.
In response to those reports, Microsoft said the update “is being revised to address an issue that is under investigation.”
This is not the first time Microsoft has had to pull a patch this year. This is the sixth time in eight months that Microsoft has had to withdraw a patch. Last August a patch was pulled after causing Blue Screens of Death, then in October a new hashing feature also warranted a recall. In December Redmond fluffed three patches, for root certificates, Exchange 2010 and Excel.
