Backup Exec Update Problems

I was going to contact Symantec directly for support via MySupport.Symantec.com except I can not get any Technical Contact Id or Support Number out of the licensing site to do it. So here goes....

    I have resolved this.

    What did not work:
    - Updating to live update 3.5 (uninstalled previous and installed this)
    - UAC was already off, right click and run as administrator didn't help
    - Removing the files as stated by AmolZeroCool

    What did work!
    - Downloading service pack 3 for 12.5 manually and installing it.
    - Then run LiveUpdate, it installs the updates it was trying to do before with no issues

    Why couldn't BackupExec get SP3 its self or state it was needed? enlightened

    Thanks,
