I'm having an error occur when I try and download and install updates.

Here's the details of the error:

AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.2055 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00000000

Pardon? You're running a BETA or RC version of Windows XP SP2?
Uninstall that BETA/RC version of Windows XP SP2 via "Software"
and apply the final version of SP2 ASAP. Afterwards the updates
should be found without crashing IE and install fine.
