Windows Updates

[Tim]

Whenever I try to access the Windows Updates page i get
as far as the page that says "Checking for updates..."
and thats it. It just stays on that page ad I can't add
any updates. I also get errors when i try to send email
or attach attachments on an email and the error report
message comes up, then closes all windows when i click on
send report or do not send report....any ideas to whats
going on?

When searching for available updates on the Windows Update site, you see the
0x8007043B error
This error may occur if the WUAUSERV and BITS services are not configured properly in
the registry.

Try registering the following:

Click Start, select Run and type:

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 atl.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll


With regard to OE, you'll need to post far more information as to what the error
message is, perhaps try this NG
