I've just downloaded an installed SP5 for VB6 (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/sp/vs6sp5/default.asp)
I've created a dummy project with one form, and used the package and deployment wizard to create a setup routine that I can run on all of my workstations to get them up to SP5. I am thinking I must have done something wrong, since SETUP.LST shows 2000 datestamps on the VB runtime.

Note the MSVBV60.DLL is August 200
VB6STKIT.DLL is 1999
This can't be right!
Have I not included the VB6 runtime in the project properly? There was no option to include or exclude the VB6 runtime.
