Hi guys,, the last few times i've run Microsoft Update the downloads are not
installing for me. Does anyone know what might be causing this to happen??
Any advice or feedback would be much appreciated.

Cheers..

I'm having the same problem with a new installation of Windows XP.
At the moment there are 83 (yes, 83!) critical or security updates that I'm
unable to install - and the list is growing by the day - see below...

Any help on this greatly appreciated - it's getting pretty worrying even
going online
to check this forum...

Problem: A problem on your computer is preventing updates from being
downloaded or installed
Solution: To fix the problem, try installing the updates again. If that
doesn't work, use the Troubleshooter to try solve the problem.
