Thanks Gordon.........
My piont is I shouldn't have to mess around and uninstall updates they
should work before they are issued. Another hash by Microsoft.

I have to say the only updates that have ever caused any problems on any of
my systems is when I accidentally allowed WU to install hardware drivers....

I don't recall ever having a problem with Windows Update, going back to
Windows 98. And that includes major updates like service packs. For me
it was a matter of learning over time how to maximize my chances for
success. All that knowledge is available to you, with a web search. The
time you invest upfront will be repaid many times over by the time you
would otherwise spend having deal with problems.

As of last night, I cannot access my Google mail. I also did the most recent
MS WIndows updates. The message I get recommends tat that I should not go to
this ( Google mail ) website. Error 500.

Yesterday and all the yesterdays I could access this...wha's up? I
shouldn't have to read pages and pages of material to fix this...What's the
solution?

I forgot to say I am using Windows XP and I installed the Service Pack 3.
This posting topic 'was helpful ' to me only because it let me know that
others were having the same problem.

Please start your own thread with regard to your issues, it helps to avoid
confusion.
