cannot access WINDOWS UPDATE successfully . . . keeps soliciting New!Get Microsoft Update today!

I am running Windows XP SP3 Home Edition on 1 of 4 PC's and it's been
updated through early April 2011. Prior to this, accessing Windows
Updates (via http://www.update.microsoft.com/wind....aspx?ln=en-us)
worked fine, near perfect, for over a year - using Internet Explorer
6. Note, I prefer not upgrading to Internet Explorer 8 - so please
avoid suggesting same - read below to understand why.

Recently, around the middle of April 2011, each time I went to Windows
Update, the page initially appears and I can briefly see the 2 buttons
(of which I always chose the CUSTOM button), but within 1/2 second,
the screen blinks and resolves to state "New! Get Microsoft Update
today!"

I have no interest in Microsoft Update for my PC running XP SP3 Home
Edition because my other 3 PC's, all running Windows XP SP3
Professional with Internet Explorer 6 are having no problems with
Windows Update. This is also why I prefer not upgrading to Internet
Explorer 8 on my PC running XP XP3 Home Edition.

Because my 3 PC's running XP Professional XP3 are not having problems
accessing Windows Update with Internet Explorer 6, it seem reasonable
to conclude that this is an XP SP3 Home Edition problem. Or, perhaps
its an Internet Explorer 6 where some setting has changed.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Internet Explorer 6, but the
problem remains. I tried all DEFAULT settings, and the problem
remains.

I cannot successfully access Windows Update to update my PC running
Windows XP SP3 Home Edition and I want to fix this problem.

Any help or suggestions are sincerely appreciated.

Thank you.

* Does Automatic Update function on this system or do you exclusively
use Internet Explorer to obtain Windows Updates ? *


Please try another attempt to access Windows Update using IE 6.
If/when this fails, close Internet Explorer.

Copy and paste at least the *last* 50 or so lines of the
WindowsUpdate.log into your reply, please -

Thanks for you reply, MowGreen. )

I always set Automatic Updates to DISABLED (or Turn off Automatic
Updates) on my PC's, and I use IE6 for updates (where prior to
launching to WU, I enable the following Services . . . Automatic
Updates (wuauserv) and Background Intelligent Transfer Service
(BITS). When finished updating, I return both BITS and wuauserv to
DISABLED. This method has worked perfectly for a decade on all PC's,
and should continue to work flawlessly. If you can't tell, I prefer a
lean Services machine.

Here are the last 50 lines . . .

Sure are a lot of Setup Update NOT required lines.

For perspective, I chose to do the same with one of my Windows XP

I have not begun comparing the two, but will shortly after posting
this follow-up.

While I do not know what to look for, after a brief comparison between
XP SP3 logs, one line stands out . . . Retrieved 1 persisted download
jobs.

I do not know what this means, so I checked the HISTORY. The status
of the last 190 updates all show GREEN checkmarks. I have to go back
to October 17, 2010 to find one RED X and that update was resolved
later the same day.

After every update or whenever I finish using IE6, I always delete all
cookies in the TIFF, and delete all files in the TIF - including all
offline content, and I clear History.

As a check, I ran WU a 2nd and 3rd time and the same 50 lines appear
unchanged, including . . . Retrieved 1 persisted download jobs.

Hopefully, to you, MowGreen, there is something more obvious that
needs correcting.

Thank again.

You're most welcome, Anna. I see nothing that indicates an updating
issue in those and the subsequent entries you posted from the WU.log.

Would you please go back up *above* this entry ( note the time ) and see
if there are any WARNING or FATAL entries ?

The issue may be related to MS' desire to kill off IE6 ASAP as it is a
woefully, insecure browser.

FWIW, you can set AU to " Notify " you about updates via the Automatic
Updates applet in Control Panel and NO updates can be downloaded nor
installed until you Approve them.

For the Services, BITS can be set to Manual when you use IE to access
Windows Update.

Thank you for your follow-up, MowGreen. )

Regarding WARNING and FATAL entries (where, for perspective, I am
including one of my XP Professional SP3 results)...

What I find interesting is the above FATAL entries have been present
since my very first visit to Windows Update with this PC (over 4 years
ago). At that time, when I first saw them, I posted to the MSWU
newsgroup and the replies I received from MS-MVP's was simple - they
can be ignored, they are meaningless, they have no bearing on your
machine or WU's.

0x80080008 CO_E_SERVER_STOPPING
Object server is stopping when OLE service contacts it

Whomever informed you that this return code is meaningless is incorrect,
Anna. The BITS service ( DM, which stands for Download Manager)is
failing to download updates. However, it will download updates if an
interface (BITS) is Started *after* this entry appears.
The AU service tries more than once to establish the interface (BITS).

I suggest you try setting the AU service to Automatic *and* open the AU
applet in Control Panel and set that to Turn automatic updates off.
Set BITS to Manual in the Services console.

Then reset Windows Updates components by downloading and *saving* the
Fixit on this page -

How do I reset Windows Updates components ?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

When the download completes close *all* open programs and browsers.
Run MicrosoftFixit50202.msi and choose it's Default mode.
When the Fixit has finished running restart the system and see if the MU
notice appears when visiting the WU web site.

NOTE: By doing the above the Windows Update history you see on the WU
web site will no longer be present. You can preserve it, if needed, by
copying DataStore.ebd from Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore to
another location. However, there is the possibility that DataStore.ebd
is corrupted or damaged and that's why your system is receiving the MU
notice when hitting the WU web site.

I suggest you try setting the AU service to Automatic *and* open the
AU applet in Control Panel and set that to Turn automatic updates
off. Set BITS to Manual in the Services console.

Did as you instructed - noting that the AU applet in Control Panel has
always bee set that to Turn automatic updates off.

Downloaded and ran MicrosoftFixit50202.msi using the Defualt Mode.

Rebooted, opened IE6 and IT WORKED, MowGreen! YOU DID IT!! No more
MU screen. )) Thank you so very, very much!!!

For the record, here are my latest results...

AFTER CLICKING Review and install updates, NO CHANGE (most likely due
to the fact that I refused to install Malicious Tool and there were no

NEXT, as I have always done, AFTER...

- deleting all cookies in the TIFF
- deleting all files in the TIF (including all offline content)
- clearing History
- closing IE6
- disabling wuauserv and BITS services

BTW, the MVP whom told me I could ignore has an ID that rhymes with CK
Stare.

On a related note, you will be please to learn that my HISTORY was not
erased or deleted. While at the WU site, I clicked Review your update
history - and all 366 updates, dating back to November 2008, are
present. )

Excluding whatever problem may still exist regarding the above FATAL
entries, eveything appears to be back to normal efficiency,
MowGreen.

Thank you again for helping me resolve this problem. The Microsoft
FIX worked PERFECTLY and will now be a fabulous tool to have on hand
in the event I experience the same or similar problem in the future.

With kindest regards,

AnnaG )

Are you sure the MVP's name wasn't Louie CK ?
Sorry I could not respond without trimming the content of your previous
post.



It's your choice but, please note that the Windows Malicious Software
Removal Tool is updated each month and is aimed at the most prevalent
malware according to data sent to Microsoft from infected computers.
It's an extremely worthwhile to have the Tool scan an XP system at least
once a month since XP is *easily* the most exploited OS.

At the very least, running the MRT can detect hidden malware ( a root
kit or root-kit like ) that is installed by one of the continually
emerging Rogue Security 'Programs', such as the ones listed here -
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/

It may not be able to remove them in all cases but it does a fine job
detecting and sometimes, neutering this type of malware, so that it can
be removed with Malwarebytes Anti-malware or another malware removal
tool specifically aimed at Rogue 'Programs'.

You're mowst welcome and I'm glad to hear that updating is working as
*you* want it to.
