All of a sudden my Windows Update has stopped working. It can connect to the
site, but when it tries to download the updates, they all fail to download.
There have been no changes to this PC lately, and all other PC's using this
internet connection through the same router work fine. It is running Windows
XP, SP2.

Thanks.
