A couple of days ago I was at my mother place again... and I tried to fix it
and wasted another 1 hour and 30 mins of my life.

I was unable to fix it.

Windows update displays error: 0x800A01CE

Apperently there is a windows update log... I collected both files and put
them in a WinRar file so that maybe somebody
could take a look at it and see what the problem is:

The file is available on the following link:

The folder is:

Bye,
Skybuck.

0x800A01CE
The remote server machine does not exist or is unavailable

Is WinXP SP3 installed?

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)?

By the way... I did try to re-install flash last sunday when I was there...
(flash 10.1 I think it was)

It totally failed with a very long error message/number... something like:

00000000_00000000000000000000000000etc.

(I also had problems installing the latest flash on my own machine... I
managed to solve it somehow... I think I used
a special program to fix it or so... I'll have to look into that... This
could be unrelated to the windows update problem though.
So this could just be a seperate issue with flash.).

Bye,
Skybuck.
