On my other laptop (OS=MS XP) I cannot download ANY programs. Sometimes I do
get as far as a partial down load, but then it won't install. I am using IE7
and kept updates up to date, but now when I try to download anything I get
the same problem. When I investigate further error message says 'Download
updates for NVidia Graphics Driver' but I have done this and seem to have the
latest drivers. A friend of mine is having a similar problem, and finds she
can't even get updates. Do you think this could be a virus or some other
problem?

Are you talking about Windows Update or other types of downloads? You ask
about a possible virus. Do you have competent AV software that is up to
date? What does a full scan in safe mode tell you? *What* program is telling
you to download graphics driver updates?

When you gather the information, post back to an appropriate Windows XP
group. This is a .NET programming group.
