MBSA and MSXML 2.6

Dear All,
MBSA is saying that I currently have MSXML 2.6 SP2, and that I should
upgrade to SP3. When I did a search on the net, not only is SP3 not
publicly available, it is also included in MS SQL 2000 SP3 that I
already have installed.
How come I am still getting these errors from MBSA despite my servers
having MS SQL 2000 SP3 installed?
Is there a way to manually check my version of MSXML 2.6?
Has anyone had a similar problem?
Thanks.

This may seem funny but it's no joke: the only KB article I could find, for
checking the XML version called by IE was to get filemon.exe from the
SysInternals.com site, open an XML file with IE, locate the reference to
msxml?.dll in filemon output, and get its properties to check its version.
Here's the article, it's a scream:

This one is also an interesting read, and it contains links to the how-to
for upgrading your installed parser:
