Media Center 2005 Online Spotlight Not Displaying Content

I have Windows XP Media Center 2005 SP3. When I access Online Spotlight, I
get a screen that discusses Media Center for Windows 7 & its features
(indicating with a message that "Not Designed For Media Center" - displaying
viewing options for now or later), but the items that were originally on
Media Center 2005 Onlight Spotlight, like MSNBC, Cinemanow, etc., do not
display any longer.

How do I get the Online Spotlight that came with Windows XP Media Center
2005?

Check the settings:-

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Languages >
Language preference English (United States) [en-US]

Also open Automatic Download option within the WMC and click Download Now
tab.

Thanks but I can't seem to find the "Download Now" option under "Automatic Downloads Options", I only see "Retrieve media information for CDs, DVDs and movies from the Internet" option. Any help is appreciated, I really miss my MSNBC news from my MCE XP.
