Windows Update fails with "software update incomplete,This
windows software did not update successfully" or "you must
be an administrator to use this"(WinXP error?).Note have
already tried Microsoft Knowledge Base KB319585.Also
unable to connect to other secure sites(eg. banking)that
previously worked.Security setting is set low and no
firewalls are on.This problem occurred after Win98 was
restored by running setup from it's own cab files in order
to solve a corruption problem where windows had no icons
or task bars.Everything else seems ok.Any ideas would be
appreciated. Thanks.
 
My problem was solved by deleting the windows setup files
on the root and in the windows directory and reinstalling
IE6SP1.
