Regarding 0x8024402c

For whatever it's worth people!

Running xpPro with Sp1 on a non-networked P4 laptop.
Access to net is via DUN, and installed software includes ZA Ver
5.1.011.000.

Program Control >Access>Generic Host Processor (svcehost.exe), set at ?
server set at X.
WinUpdate (V5) scan for updates failed, 0x8024402c.

Changed ZA ProgControl Access svcehost.exe from ? to (checkmark).
WinUpdate (V5) scan for updates worked.
Left WinUpdate site.

Changed ZA ProgControl Access svcehost.exe back to ?
Went back to WinUpdate etc etc etc svcehost.exe request for access (ZA) came
up twice
clicked ok both times, scan for updates worked......Izzy
