Q: Software Updates - Not Functioning

Software Updates has provided me with Safari 7.1. n 20 September 2014.

Yet the Mac is trying to do it again and again has tried 3 times today. Keeps telling me to install and when I say yes the mesage is that I am downloading an unknown copy not recognised by the App Store - so I do not.

But is it a bug od some sort? Will it just go way. I've tightened malware security as per yr FAQs.

I'm about todo repair permissions as a start. Advice?Thanks.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

I read and delete. No copy.

I do have FIVE copies on Safari 7.1 installed since yesterday and number 6 downloading itself as I type.

Now something is wrong I figure.
