XP Pro updates... disables settings in AOL

Hello-
It seems that after my PC downloads updates for Windows XP Pro that certain
settings no longer work. For example two times ago I noticed that after
downloading the updates that my AOL notifications did not work like they
used to. I happened across the fix when I asked about a problem with
receiving my hotmail through outlook express... I was told to go (somewhere,
don't recall at the moment) and add in MSN. com, and a couple of others.
Then, my AOL notifications worked like normal.
Now, after a recent download my AOL messenger notifications aren't working
again. Has anyone ran into this before, and know how to prevent this?
Thanks,
D. Hudson

I found some more info. Maybe it will help get a reply...
This is what I did before when having trouble with outlook express and AOL
(AIM actually).
Like I said, when I download Windows updates, it seems to affect the
functionality of something else...

IE Tools > Internet Options > Privacy > Sites > type in...

live.com [and]
hotmail.com [and]
msn.com

....then Allow cookies for each domain, in turn.

Thanks,
D. Hudson
