My first install of WinXP 64 I did the updates to security suggested by the
program. Prior to do that I could access the web via the 32 browser and use
Outlook 2003. After installing the updates, I was totally blocked and 1 day
later did a total reinstall of the O/s. Voila access to the net granted once
again.

Does anyone know WHICH of the updates causes this problem? Is there a work
around other than not updating?

A call to Microsoft resulted in my finding out that they do NOT support the
install of Win XP 64 except through paid support. My copy is an OEM copy via
the Exchange program, and refers me to the manufactuer of my machine..which
for me is futile since I built the thing myself. I KNOW the manufactuer is
clueless on trouble shooting this matter.

What motherboard and chipset are you using. If it's an nvidia based
motherboard, the chances are that you've been nailed by the built in nvidia
firewall, which just doesn't work right. The solution is, however, fairly
simple -- install the firewall if it isn't already installed, and then
uninstall it. This seems to remove the problem with 32-bit applications
accessing internet resources.

MoBo is a Giga-byte GA-K8V Ultra-939 and yes has nVidia drivers. I updated
the mobo drivers after this install as well and so far as long as I don't do
the updates from Microsoft, I have full access to everything, including the
Web and IE 32 Bit.

What would the file name for the nVidia firewall be? and How do I uninstall?

fought with it until 2 am, along with my ISP and LinkSys..did the reinstall
yesterday about 12 noon in frustration

As Charlie said, you have to install it first from the motherboard support
CD and then uninstall it from Add/Remove programs.

Microsoft update website was hacked on the day MS forced
updates for legal operating systems only.
May be that was your problem.
I couldn't access the website few days ago, then the next day
it updated without checking if I had pirated copy or not.
The website is still hacked, MS finding a work around.

what John said. It's on the support CD that came with your mobo. Install it.
Then un-install it. The problem will go away.

about the same time Promise provides a working driver for non-RAID SATA
drives. And about 2 weeks after MS provides a driver for stupidpoint. IOW,
when we have porcine aviators, from what I can tell.

I hope they fix the problems with SATA II drives first.
