Re: installation failed after downloading windows updates

Doug...

THANK YOU! Nice of you to guide me... in WINNT I found a "Windows update"
file that didn't say ".log", but it seems to have the info Nocturnal might be
looking for.

The service pack I have is Service pack 4(windows 2000).

FYI for all: Some of the updates worked today(no clue why/how), but I
keep getting error message for "Cumulative Security Update for Internet
Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (KB896727)"
--------->the message I get is "Error Code: 0x8007F02B "
