What do you mean as far as a problem with the OS?? Any solutions?
Another symptom is that when I get errors and I try to send reports to MS it
returns and normally it would give a message to me and tell me why...when I
click the link it says that the file is not associated with any program go to
folded and select a program for it...dont know if that helps or not.

This is how I set Norton firewall so I can download updates and keep the
firewall on--
In Internet Access Control go onto Microsoft Generic Host Process for Win32
Services (if it isn't already there then add it by browsing for
C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe , select Modify... Customize Internet
Access or this application (OK), Add, and add the following:-
Action: Permit Internet Access
Connections to and from other computers
Computers: Only the computers and sites listed below -
Single Address - v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
Communications:
What protocols? TCP and UDP
What types of communications or ports do you want to permit?
. Only the types...listed below
remote http (port 80)
remote https (port 443)
Description: Generic Host Proc - Windows Update 5 (or call it anything else
you like)
NB re TCP and UDP - some sites say you only need TCP but I found you need
both.
(got port numbers from www.jsiinc.com/SUBQ/tip8000/rh8022.htm )
Then go into Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options, Security, highlight
Trusted Sites, click on Sites... and in "Add this Web site to the zone"
enter https://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com ; (NB https) and (important)
uncheck "Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone".
Tried the above on their own but found that both were necessary.
Log out of Windows account and back in (or reboot) for changes to take
effect.
Hope this works for you too.
