The workaround for this issue is to delete the numbered folder in the Data\Engines\x86\Norman\Package\ directory located in "c:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Forefront Protection for Exchange Server\" by default

The first update can fail with a 404 file not found but the 2nd update will work.

We are investigating the cause of this issue.
