Re: Windows update... Not updating!!!

Click Start > Run > type in or copy and paste the below into the Open:
line, then click OK or press Enter

%windir%\windowsupdate.log

The WindowsUpdate.log will now be open. Start at the *bottom* of the log
and work your way back up until you come to a FATAL or WARNING entry.

Example:

2005-06-02 04:32:01 992 158 Setup FATAL: IsUpdateRequired failed with
error 0x80072eef
2005-06-02 04:32:01 992 158 Misc WARNING: Send failed with hr = 80072eef.

Copy and paste the section just prior to and just after such entries
into your reply, please.
