Microsoft monitoring group...
While downloading SP4 Update several windows came up
referencing other sites...download security patches.
Going to those links turned out to be advertisments for
spam programs.
What does this mean? Could it mean Microsoft's site has
been hacked?
It took 3 days of fighting with the download to finally
get it...then more frustration when tried to install the
update. Continuous reboot loop.
Now what?
Lil,
Good morning,
I avoided one of the problems by buying the SP4 disk.
That is safer than trying to download without those patches.
Did you go to
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com ???
I don't see any spam links...
However, there is still the problem of getting the 30 to 40 critical
updates, upgrades and other fixes.
I'm currently working on using the "Microsoft catalog update" to:
- download
- save to cd or removable disk
- use after loading SP4
Here is a copy of my post-sp4 list - but it is a work in progress...
