| 184799 | 2003-10-19 05:59:00 | Hmmm.... what are your cookie settings set to? You may have to lower them before it will let you in. You will also have to accept Active X as well so ensure that your settings for that are on Prompt. | Susan B (19) | ||
| 184800 | 2003-10-19 07:07:00 | Have a look at this page (www.updatexp.com) and this page (www.theage.com.au) for information that may help. If it still does not work let us know. | Susan B (19) | ||

| 184804 | 2003-10-20 20:56:00 | Try to log on as Administrator and see what whether you can complete your Windows update. I had the same problem sometime ago and I managed to updated my xp successfully after loging on as Administrator. Good luck. |
