This is not my idea found it on another site and worked for me :) (part 2)

Goodluck

(Part one)

go to
cntrl panel
network and internet
internet options
security (top second tab)
and set securty level to custom adjust all active x to ether prompt or enabled and you should be able to get updates working…

if failed attempt one doesnt work for you try

(Part Two)

go to network and sharing center in control panel
once in here locate where ur connected at (linksys,netgear..etc)
to the right it should say view status
click Properties it will prompt you to confirm privlages push continue
while in networking tab locate internet protocal Ver. 4 highlight and to the right click properties set prefered dns to 4.2.2.2 and alternative dns to 4.2.2.3 and it should work if not i have more ways
