Windows Update Page Never Loads.

Hi All,

Can some one help. I'm having trouble running Wondows Update on two Win2k
Servers. Patches are up to date (excluding the lastest)

When I go to the WU page it stays black and the IE status bar just says
loading.......

Many Thanx for your assistance...

Mike.

With no other windows/applications open save the IE page you're using to
access Windows Update, try temporarily disabling your firewall and/or
anti-virus application. Be careful!
