This might seem like a stupid question. I can't figure out why my windows update and Norton update quit working a couple months ago. I used to get a yellow box popup in the lower right screen when an update was ready. I can do it manually, but when I try to schedule these, I get "wrong password" I do not use a windows password.

Hi there Robert,

Run Scheduled Tasks w/o Password, download fix from here:

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/sthome.vbs

Usage: Download the file to your computer and simply
double-click it so that it would automatically get
installed. Norton anti-virus software might warn you of
a "malicious" script, this is normal if you have "Script
Safe" or similar technology enabled. I recommend you to
choose "Authorize entire script" option next Action.
