Re: Unable to install updates

Are you running WinXP SP3 or SP3 currently? Did you just reinstall Windows?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed? What
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall
(if any)?

=> I would NOT recommend installing IE7 via Windows Update!
