Hello, I have another problem. I get Microsoft advice to update and I select all but Office 3 ( I don't have the disk). But I was able to download all of the updates before. Not now.

Thanks for any help I can get.

Hockey :) :)

try this

Download WUFix.exe to your desktop.
Double-Click WUFix.exe to run fix.
You will see a window open and commands processing. When the window closes the fix will have completed.
Restart the computer.
This fix will clear the proxy cache, places Windows Update sites in the Trusted Zone, places Windows Update sites in the exception list of IE Popup Blocker, starts all dependent services, registers required DLLS, empties the Windows Update temporary folder (with backup), renames the catroot2 folder, retains update history and Event log, and deletes BITS pending download queue.

go here to get it ...
