Whenever I try to access updates from support and help I
get the following text on the website "Thank you for your
interest in Windows Update

Windows Update is the online extension of Windows that
helps you get the most out of your computer.

You must be running a Microsoft Windows operating system
in order to use Windows Update."

I also get this message if I try accessing directly from
the microsoft website.
i dont seem to get any automatic updates/downloads either
although my preferences are set for this. I have
downloaded successfully previously.
Any ideas ??
 
Idea 1. Use IE not some other browser.
Idea 2. You have some privacy software installed that is blocking
WindowsUpadate
Idea 3. You are actually running Linux and trolling. Just Kidding
Idea 4. You have set your security settings up too high for WindowsUpdate.
 
You just need to make sure that your browser and the targeted website can
exchange identities. Most firewalls have this option to permit or block your
browser ID. Permit it, nothing disasterous will happen except all your
troubles will go away.
