From: Frederick R. Hutchings on 12 Feb 2010 10:07 Well, I just answered my own question. It's named Microsoft Update Catalog. Removing that gets me a little further, but it hangs after I click the info bar to install the (presumed) new one. Fred "Frederick R.

From: PA Bear [MS MVP] on 12 Feb 2010 21:00 Can you reach http://www.microsoft.com/downloads? How about http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com or http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate ?? Are you running IE6, IE7, or IE8 on your WinXP SP3 computer? What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)? Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)? Frederick R.
