Re: 0x80240020 - another request for help

I've exhausted every single option with the DCom scenario and was not able
to get Windows to install the updates automatically.

Within Windows 2000, I do not have the Notify_Disabled key.

I am still having issues with 0x80240020.

I am going back tomorrow with a few fixes to try and if that doesn't work
I'm calling it quits and just going to cut my losses. I will be following
this though to see if any solution is ever found. It looks like we're at a
lost and no solution will ever be found. I'm willing to donate a few bucks
to whoever can find a working solution.
