Actually you could just go to this site and get all your updates from there
instead of going to the main microsoft updates site, thats how im getting all
my updates now im still checking as i speak

Im not sure I understand your question. Anywayss all the updates are
available on that site i gave, just need to surf, i dont think you can get
SP2 without getting SP1 first but like I said all the updates are available
there since i cant get the updates the old fashion way or the easy way i
should say. here's the site again incase you missed it:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/s...n&categoryid=7

Ok, firstly, all the MS updates such as sp1 and sp2 for windows, IE, and
Office etc. are cummulative. That means you don't have to download sp1
before you download sp2, because sp2 contains all the updates that are
included whithin sp1, well according to MS anyway. Before downloading
anything though, check to see what version of IE you have and what update.
Same goes for all the other MS stuff.

Go ....Help > About Internet Explorer. That will pop up a window and tell
you what you have installed. I have Sp2 installed. Don't know why but
everytime MS come up with a new patch for another hole found, the system just
keeps getting slower and slower.

My problem was resolved only after I turned off my 3rd party firewall before
checking the MS update service. Others have found other programs that needed
to be shut down. Guess you have to try 1 by 1. This however in my opinion is
not good enough, the problem doesn't seem to lay with the firewall in my case
anyway but with something MS again have overlooked that has started to
conflict with the firewall. I know this because the updater worked perfectly
with the same firewall before they Uh Hummm UPGRADED their service to Uh
hummm make it better.

Anyway that's just me venting my frustrations about MS. Still, good on them
for trying. After all, we all know that's what "NT" stands for don't we?
"NICE TRY" Microsoft keep up the great work. Seriously though do you
wonder WHY IT personnel have so much grey hair?
