    No problems for me, Win2K SP2 installed on this rig. Just went to the site and I'm d/l'ing some updates right now.

    Yes!

    And I have no idea why either. I haven't installed anything recently.

    I've had that problem before. I never was able to discover its cause. A repair XP installation fixed it.

    A repair install of 2K fixed that problem for me the one time I had it.

    Try deleting the Hidden WindowsUpdate Folder and everything in it. That will cause the Update site to re-download the Update software. I've seen the problem several times and This has fixed it a few times. Other than that... No idea.

    I had the same problem - WU would look for all the updates except the "Windows" ones. My first reaction was that Windows was hosed.

    Then I experimented with my security settings and fixed the problem. Make sure both SSL and the TLS are checked.

    Hope it works for you, too. :cool:

    Neither one worked for me either. I must have the Al Capown Gangsta-Trippin Worm!

    Go to Microsofts support site, and download IE 6 SP1, tell it to reinstall all components, it will likely download some more, 200 to 500K or so.

    This usually fixes that problem for me.

    Al,
    I was speaking in a purely platonic cyberspace kind of sense....then there you go perverting it into something sexual.

    And you wonder why your Windows Update stops working!?
