Hello

After the last update Windows update won't show the list of updates,
optional and non optional.
My OS is Windows Vista Home Premium SP2.
I have a screenshot to, but i don't know how to load it.

Are you saying that you can't run a manual check for updates via the Start
menu shortcut or that a manual check for updates doesn't offer any updates?

You need to post a link for NNTP users to know what you are seeing
and would like them to see. All that we get is this:

There was no attachment on that Message.
Are you aware that you are participating in a USENET thread?

I've got the same problem, and I never install something I can't check first.
(I know it is only the windows defender update, but it is a matter of
principles :P)

Here's what can be seen (or not seen in this situation) (and yeah, french
version):

1st page when clicking on the task bar icon:
http://h3qmzw.blu.livefilestore.com/...aqFMKX/WU1.jpg

2nd page, where I could normally see all upadates available (in this
exemple, only one should be listed, but there's none):
http://h3qmzw.blu.livefilestore.com/...YCPRn1/WU2.jpg

Thanks
