update of frontpage 2002 from microsoft website fails

I can't get the Microsoft website to allow me to update my version of
FrontPage 2002.

As soon as I try to load a template, I get an error message that says
FrontPage has to close and the error report says to get an update from the
Microsoft website, but the website won't update.

Help!!!

Go to Windows Update, then select Office Updates, then look for Office XP updates.

Please explain what you mean by MS website allowing you to update your
version of FP2002. Are you talking about updates at the Office Updates? Or
what? Are you actually talking about upgrading?

Not enough information.
