| 730496 | 2008-12-17 22:57:00 | Hi All. Maryann's computer will not do Automatic Updates. It IS set to do so. Updates in the History list show as faile. Why won't it do Auto Updates. How do I do them manually. I cannot see how to do it. Thanks PJ |

| 730497 | 2008-12-17 23:08:00 | Pass. It didnt tell me either. Probably because its an out of band update. Its not a normal update mth (it happened earlier this mth) You'll have to go to the windowsupdate site and download them |

| 730499 | 2008-12-17 23:49:00 | Try Dial A Fix (www.softpedia.com) - its designed to fix problems with windows updates - sometimes things get a little muddled with windows. Tick the double green arrow down the bottom left corner that will select every thing - then press GO - When it finishes , reboot and hopefully all will work. |

| 730501 | 2008-12-17 23:55:00 | I have been into the update site & had it check for updates. Only one. & it consistently refuses to up date. In Histoty, everything has "Failed" for weeks. Why? Please tell me how to download them manually. PJ |

| 730502 | 2008-12-18 00:02:00 | Go here (www.microsoft.com) Click on affected software and windows entries (click on the +) And the Office suites, if Office is installed It could be a firewall blocking things, if one is installed |
