Hi,
I have been using MBSA 2.0.1 without any issues for as long as I can
remember however, in last few days I have been encountering problems with the
Security Updates Scan.
I have tried using new version MBSA 2.1 but get the same problem. I am
running the scan from a Windows 2000 SP4 server with internet connection and
trying to scan PCs over the network (Windows XP SP2, SP3 and Windows 2000
SP4) which have always worked until now. The strange thing is I have one
laptop that is working when other machines are failing and the machines have
same SOE.
Extract of WindowsUpdate.log on failing machine:
