Re: 0x80248015 update error

Microsoft Update has so many sand traps, it's hard to keep up with them all.
So here's a suggestion ... why don't they check the computer date in the
ActiveX code that interfaces to the Update site?

It sure would save all of us a heap of trouble.

Yes, why should people know what date it is ? Microsoft should tell them
and also tell them what time it is ... in fact, Microsoft should also
provide a calendar with significant dates already circled.
MS should also inform people when their bills are due.
They can do that, right ?

OK, why stop there ? MS should tell folks who to vote for, provide
directions when folks are driving, tell them when they're low on petrol,
choose a mate for them, ad infinitum.
Why should Folks be responsible for anything when Microsoft can be their
Big Daddy ?
Makes sense to me ...

My goodness, you are an idiot. Santa didn't bring you the toys you wanted?

Why the hell should I be checking the date on my system?
I expect it to be kept in sync, especially when I've told Windows to keep
it sync'd with an external source.

You're an "MVP" .... please, god ... don't let me ever achive this level of
sophistication.

Just in case you missed it, idiot, the reason for Microsoft ActiveX client
to check the date is because their stupid updates are sensitive to such stuff.

I can still pay my bills without the assistance of Microsoft,
(or valuable assistance from dim-bulbs like you).
