Unable to install microsft updates. Afer 5 years this appears. Silver Surfer needs a bit of help.
"The website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are
trying to view"
XP Home SP2
Suddenly after 5 years of virtually trouble free XP this message now appears
when I try to use the windows update.
I have trawled through Google several times and find many suggestions but no
fixes that are straight forward and many require registry changes.
I appreciate that the question has been asked many times but could one of
the honourable posters to this forum please give it to me again or a work
around.

Step-by-step, in the given order...
Download, install, run, update and perform a full scan (separately) with the
following two applications (freeware versions are the ones to use for this):
SuperAntiSpyware
http://www.superantispyware.com/
MalwareBytes
http://www.malwarebytes.com/
After performing a full scan with one and then the other and removing
whatever they both find completely, you may uninstall these products,
if you wish.
Reboot.
Start button --> RUN and type in:
%SystemRoot%\system32\net stop wuauserv
--> Click OK.
Start button --> RUN and type in:
%SystemRoot%\system32\regsvr32 %SystemRoot%\system32\wups2.dll
--> Click OK.
Start button --> RUN and type in:
%SystemRoot%\system32\net start wuauserv
--> Click OK.
Download the latest version of the Windows Update agent from here (x86):
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=91237
.... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After saving it to the root
of the C:\ drive, do the following:
Close all Internet Explorer windows and other applications.
Start button --> RUN and type in:
%SystemDrive%\windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /WUFORCE
--> Click OK.
(If asked, select "Run.) --> Click on NEXT --> Select "I agree" and click on
NEXT --> When it finishes installing, click on "Finish"...
Reboot.
Download/Install the latest Windows Installer (for your OS):
( Windows XP 32-bit : WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe )
http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/d...displaylang=en
Reboot.
Log on as an user with administrative rights and open Internet Explorer and
visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and select to do a CUSTOM scan...
(Every time you are about to click on something while at these web pages -
first press and hold down the CTRL key while you click on it. You can
release the CTRL key after clicking each time.)
Once the scan is done, select just _ONE_ of the high priority updates
(deselect any others) and install it.
Reboot again.
If it did work - try the web page again - selecting no more than 3-5 at a
time.
The Optional Software updates are generally safe - although I recommend
against the "Windows Search" one. I would completely avoid the Optional
Hardware updates.
Come back - let us know if that worked.
.... Really - come back and let everyone know if that worked.
If it seemed to have failed, do this:
Check the staus of these two services:
- Automatic Updates
- Background Intelligent Transfer Service
Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK. In the list of
services, find those two, right click on them one at a time and choose
properties. In the Startup type list, what is each of them set to?
Report that here.
Then:
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type: %windir%\windowsupdate.log
and then click OK.
Scroll down towards the bottom for the latest entries to locate any error
code(s) or explanation as to why the page cannot be displayed.
You can copy/paste the last 50 or so lines here...
How to read the Windowsupdate.log file:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/902093
Also give what AntiVirus software you are running, any third party security
software at all actually...

Thank you for this excellent response though I'm not sure that I will be
competent enough to complete successfully.

I have confidence in your ability - and/or you can ask if you get stuck. ;-)

Re: Unable to install microsft updates. Afer 5 years this appears.
I follow what Shenan Stanley said and it do works !! Thanks !
However, after that, everytime I start my computer, it will show three
following DLLs missing.
windows/system32/savogiju.dll
windows/system32/mujuwega.dll
windows/system32/jumidani.dll
Do I need those three above DLLs for Windows XP or Office? If so, how do I
get them?

Your computer is still infected with Vundo (and probably much more).

According to a search of the internet, those files are part of a Vundo
infection. In all likelihood, what you have are dangling entries in the
registry that cause Windows to try to load these now removed files.
A search of the registry is in order.

You may still be infested with Vundo (or variants and likely other things.)
It may just be entries leftover from the cleanup (the files cannot be found
because they were removed properly during your scan and removal - but the
registry entries/startup values for those things are still there *trying* to
load them.)
Run MSCONFIG and find out where these values are (in the registry, etc) and
use that location information to remove them. (Do not just uncheck them in
MSCONFIG, use that information to actually go to the location and remove the
entries manually.)
This may get too complicated - but - it may also be your only option beyond
bringing the computer to someone to clean it for you... If you go through
this posting and your computer checks out clean, then more than likely - you
are clean!

If you want to be sure - start a conversation in THAT forum using the
information you gather by following the advice in the link above verbatim.

Re: Unable to install microsft updates. Afer 5 years this appears. Silver Surfer needs a bit of help.
Very sorry but I did not know about this NG until advised by a poster on the
windowsxp.general group.
Please forgive me.
Thanks to every poster for the wealth of advice. Now working but I cannot be
sure of which change made the final correction.
