Re: Windows XP update problems

Are you running WinXP, WinXP SP1, WinXP SP2, or WinXP SP3?

How did you "fix all that"?

Is Automatic Updates enabled?

At the Windows Update website, click on UPDATE HISTORY: What were the last
five (5) updates installed, when were they installed, and how were they
installed (e.g., Windows Update; Microsoft Update; Automatic Updates)?

I am running XP home. I was having problems getting update enabled, then
started, then getting the actual web page loaded, but I fixed all of that.
Now when I search for updates on windows update site, it doesn't return
any
updates (hihg-priority or custom). I know there has to be updates
available, why can't I find any?
