Don't have a proxy.
I have Outlook 2003. Tried the hotfix resolution.
Also changed to Windows Update from Microsoft update.
Every change seems to work at first, but then stops at repeated visits.
I noticed that the Axtive X warning no longer appears at the Update site,
and I don't have it in my Trusted sites.
