Windows XP Home SP2
owner unsure when upgrade to SP2 occurred

Symptoms:
I can't get the information from Microsoft's update site because when I open
IE to that web page, the IE window / display area is blank [ could be white
on white ].

Norton Internet Security config screen appears, but will not proceed when I
click on "next". System does not lock up. I can click on "x", upper right,
to quit.

MSN 8 Explorer advises me that the system needs to be upgraded. When I
click on "install now", the system will not proceed. Again, it does not lock
up.

MSN 8 links all result in "requested page is not available".

would be listed

regsvr32 /u sccbase.dll
regsvr32 /u slbcsp.dll

exit

booted to safe mode with networking; problems persist

Rick:
Please feel free to direct me to web sites for the following:
1. What is Windows Script?

2. What tipped you off that Windows Script may be the probelm?

3. What caused the problem? Did WS become corrupt?

Thanks again.
