Hi,

Created a new post because of errors. Anyways regarding John's reply:
You are using it. Make sure you are using the 32-bit version of IE. You
also may have to install (mobo cd) and uninstall (add/remove programs) the
Nvidia firewall if you have an Nvidia chipset on your motherboard.

Responding:
Thanks,
Yes I was using the 32-bit IE and I do have nVidia firewall on. But that seems
extream to uninstall nVidia firewall to get Windows Update page to work? Can't
I just temporarily turn the firewall off?

Windows Update is great because it scans your computer for updates,
but is there another way to get updates? I just used the service at:
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...en/default.asp
And it gave me all the updates needed. However if I wanted to use this
again I would have to check to see if I already installed a particular
update already right?
THANKS

I have only seen one post where this worked, but you can give it a try
first. You still have the Windows firewall so turn it on if it is not on
and you should be fine.

Thanks, turning off nVidia's firewall makes Microsoft Update happy.
