I have found that I can access the "new" update site by closing my NORTON
firewall. But better yet try entering(http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com)
into your trusted software or firewall. THEN it will work.

Microsofts fix that promps is to enter something like
*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com by adding your fix ie. v5.win...etc.
directly to the Nortons Firewall it came up a treat without having to turn
off Nortons.

thanks
