Getting an error while upgrading an MSI application

Question

I'm getting below error while upgrading one software on my Windows 2003 server.

"Error 1260 : Windows cannot open this program because it has been prevented by a software restriction policy. For more information, open event viewer."

I searched lot on internet and one thing I got to know that, this error occurs because of one Windows's security update, KB2918614. I uninstalled that update & tried upgrade of my product, it worked fine for me.

But my question is, without uninstalling that update how I can make my upgrade of software successful ?

Here are some logs that I'm getting while failure :
