Hello. I have WINXP SP2 and I have get all the updates for it. Including
Genuine adv.tool of course. But now when I try to go to update site with IE,
and press for example "Express" button for updates it just hangs in
Installation status"Preparing for download", when I cancel it it reports that
genuine adv.tool download Failed..

I recently disabled part of my services because of performance issues,
anybody know what services is needed for update (excluding Auto Update couse
its on). Or is the problem with services. What should I do to get updates
work again. PLEASEEE Answer because I want my XP to be in perfect shape.
Excluding this issue, windows works really well.

Bad idea! Put them back the way they were before.

You will need AT LEAST:

Background Intelligent Transfer Service
Cryptographic Services
HTTP SSL
Windows Installer

but maybe others know of more.
