Your log is clear, so you're ready to install Service Pack 2 for Windows XP. I'll bet installing this major upgrade will take care of most if not all your problems.

Keep checking until all updates are installed. <_<

whenever i go on this site... it just says "Checking for the latest version of the Windows Update software...

Depending on your connection speed, this might take a minute. During this time, you may receive one or more security warnings. Review each security warning to ensure that the content is signed by Microsoft, and then click Install or Yes to install the software.

This is microsoft checking to make sure your software that windows uses to download windows updates is up to date. It does take a little bit even with a cable connection. So since you are on dial up it may take a long time. Did you ever get it downloaded that one day?

Yes, uninstall spykiller through the control panel. You can order a SP2 CD here (I got mine in 4 days):
