window updates continue to fail

When i go to the update homepage and try to download critical updates they
repeatedly fail. I have 89 to download. I recently had a problem and had to
reinstall window xp. I do have service pack 2. When i go to download
sometimes it says 0 kb and 0 for time as well. I have tried several times.

As has been posted many times in replies to your many other posts about
this...

Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP
installation:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.
