Microsoft Update Again:


Recommended Posts

Posted

I posted this topic awhile ago after setting up my sister's computer

and the Microsoft update site still continues to stop at the point of

checking her computer every time I try and use it. I've tried on my

computer at home with no problems whatsoever so it can't be Microsoft

as some pointed out. I've checked her settings and they all 'seem' to

be fine although they are set a medium-high default.

In addition A-Squared won't scan for updates either saying that either

she doesn't have a computer connection or proxy settings set. How do I

set those or do I need to?

Her computer connection is up and running by the way as all other

programs function fine, e.g. Spybot, AVG, Internet Explorer, MSN, etc.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Re: Microsoft Update Again:

 

There is a newsgroup dedicated to update problems:

 

If you use a news reader: microsoft.public.windowsupdate

 

If you use the web interface:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windowsupdate&cat=en_us_d99bb655-a5d5-4c07-bdb0-90caf9f30c42&lang=en&cr=us
