222190 2004-03-15 04:11:00 I tried using the various updating addresses advised but with no success.
I managed to locate my update log.
The most important line reads:
download status value = FAILED Error Code 2147467260

Any ideas on what this means?

Thanks

Did you try clicking the link in my last post? Should open the update site in a new window (if it's going to work for you!)

The error code is a standard code saying that the link you typed was not able to be followed, see here...

222193 2004-03-15 18:50:00 I have tried all of the suggested links with no joy. I am now working my way through Rob's check off link for update errors.

Thanks

222194 2004-03-16 05:07:00 Problem solved.

I worked my way through Robs web link and fixed the problem with step 8.

That was by deleting all the contents in C:\program files\windowsupdate\V4

With an empty folder in V4, windows update worked!!

My thanks to everyone who answered
