| 169634 | 2003-08-22 13:07:00 | all i get with windows update site is...... Thank you for your interest in Windows Update Windows Update is the online extension of Windows that helps you get the most out of your computer. The latest version of Windows Update is available on computers that are running Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 2000 (except Windows 2000 Datacenter Server), Windows XP, and the Windows Server 2003 family. or esle when the site does work it fails to download the activeX. the office update works fine. btw OS is 98se with IE6. |

| 169640 | 2003-08-22 13:48:00 | Well Windows Updates is working the only reason why it isn't for you is because of something you've done to prohibit it. Have a wee look at where a248.e.akamai.net goes. Chances are it is currently being set to go to 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 ;) Guess what I've been doing tonight. |

| 169642 | 2003-08-23 02:52:00 | yep that addy was blocked but not the problem. unforunatly i'm not sure exactly what caused the problem. i run nortons internet uninstall and removed the update engine, then i ran the plugin cleaner and removed the acrobat6 and quicktime6.3 plugins. after all that it worked fine. | tweak'e (174) | ||
| 169643 | 2003-08-23 04:00:00 | When that happens, just look at the URL in the Address bar. It ends with.../en/thanks.asp Delete the last "thanks" appendage and all is fine again. |
