Quote from September 2013 Office Update: Targeting and Repeated Offering - Office Sustained Engineering - Site Home - TechNet Blogs:

"We have investigated the issue, established the cause, and we have released new updates that will cease the unnecessary re-targeting of the updates or the correct offering of these updates."
