Hi
I run XP Pro on my home PC. I like to keep up to date with updates and patches but find I am now being blocked from the windows update page. I get the message "Administrators ony" despite being exactly that!
I have tried all the options on the self help screens but still no acces. Any ideas????

Hi leyburn,

For problems with windows updates

Check this information:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;312955&Product=winxp

http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_abc.htm
Select W and scroll to WinUpdates

Good luck
Leyburn,
go to: tools/internet options/security/click on default level, click
apply, ok, you are done, the problem is activex controls, if they are
off, winupdate will not work, you always can switch it off by using
custom level on same page. I had the same problem and that's what I did
to fix it.

HTH,

Alfa
