And the update site just goes on forever. Used Mr, Fixit, did not fix update issue, and says missing or corrupt files on the history think. Update site says I never had updates. Real funny. I saved from mr fix it, but they are unreadable.
Have had this computer since it was new in 2003, never had this happen before.
- Windows XP Home Edition SP3 Version 2002
- Norton Virus & Firewall for 5 years
- Gateway Computer
- 2 Gigs of ram
- IE 8
Recently turned off auto update because it ran real long. So I set it to notify only. Did not stop the process. Tried CCleaner, have run it many years ago, downloded their new version cleaned files and reg, Computer sped up quite nicely. but was wondering why in the past couple of weeks I had no notices of updates available. Tried manualy, then that is when it all started. Going to try the manual resetting from this pagehttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 soon if no Solution is found. Less then a year on XP left, but got to give this one to my Grand Daughter for her school work,
Thanks For Any Help.
