I've tried several times to update Windows to get security patches
but Windows Update just won't do the job. I can get a list of patches
and click Install but nothing ever happens after that. I've had several
failures tonight reaching the Windows Update site. I hate to have to
reformat my drive again but I guess I should reformat and get a
different OS than XP. It's been on my machine for 24 hours and works
pathetically. The RPC/Locator is stopped and can't be started. What
can I do here? Thanks.

You can reformat and reinstall XP but before you go online make sure the
firewall is enabled to prevent getting blaster again.
