Windows Update details link doesn't display anything

I've been digging around in the Windows Updates available for my machines
but I can't get anything to display when I click on the "Details" link for
an update. When I click on "Details" absolutely nothing happens but I do
see a "javascript" message in the status bar when the mouse is sitting on
top of the link. Anybody have any ideas? Could I have some kind of setting
screwed up in Internet Explorer?

Thanks,
Mike

You receive a scripting error or a blank page when you visit the Windows Update Web
site or the Microsoft Update Web site
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=836948

Another cause could be a pop-up blocker stopping access.

TaurArian,

It was content blocking in Norton Personal Forewall.
Thanks for the help.
