    A grey box appears which says that it is an unknown file type

    Hi kesher. The reason its an unkown file type is its a Windows Vista update. Its not for Windows XP. Windows XP doesn't include a msu file type and for safety reasons microsoft made it so you can't install a Windows Vista patch on a Windows XP system. I wouldn't worry about it.
