Does anyone know why I would be redirected to go the the mac page when I go
to the Microsoft update web page???? I am running Windows XP with SP2 and
have been able to do updates until last Friday (2-15-08), I have installed
several VS support packages to learn VS2008 from the MS web site.

Hi Gary, Here is a quick fix,i had the same problem only this weekend.
Go to:- Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced Tab -> Click Reset Button,
read the warning window, click Reset -> Then Restart IE and Windows Update
should work again.........................
