Windows Update Site update hangs

When I go to windows Update site from new Windows XP Pro computers I get a
screen stating,"We've made improvements to our website. To download the new
version of the software and begin using Windows Update, please click Install
Now."

I click on the "Install Now" button to the right and the progress bar starts
moving across my screen. When it gets to 60% it stops and just sits there.

I have this happening on many new computers all running Winxp Pro and with
only Office 2003 installed at this time.

How can I get past this so I can get updates?
