The Windows Update web site no longer offers updates for your computer.

With Windows 2000 and IE 6 sp1 Windows update is not
allowing access to windows update web site. Site says IE
is either 4.x or lower or OS is Windows 95 or lower. IE
has been reinstalled and even rolled back to 5.5 then
upgraded back to 6 sp1 to no avail. Windows can not be
reinstalled on this machine unless it is absolutly
necesary. I have a feeling that this is registry related.
Any help would be much apreciated.

Thanks,

Hi!

Microsoft has had this messed up. Somewhere in my library of odd screenshots
is another example where MS just had it messed up for some reason.

I would try to empty the Temporary Internet Files, remove the Windows Update
Control from Download Program Files, and then manually delete ALL cookies
from Temporary Internet Files. This should force Windows Update to
reinitialize and work once again.

Good luck!

William
