OT Critical Updates problems.

[Guest]

Well MS ran into some network problems, which pervents the updates
to be propoagted via WUv6, MU, Auto Update and WSUS. See

Thanks, Engel--was wondering!

I'm having difficulties as well, seems like a broad issue, today anyway.
Servers swamped, or...
You should perhaps advise MS, Bill, if you have the correct contact.

For your info, the 'Office' part of the updates are available - no
problem - from:

No problems at all - everything downloaded and installed correctly.

I normally install them one at a time just in case there are problems (as I
think you do, Robin), but this time there were so many that I thought I'd
just go with the flow and grab the lot at one go. Everything was fine and as
far as I can tell nothing unusual has happened since.

a good rule of thumb after MS Updates is to check especially if it needs a
reboot is to click on the Task Manger and make sure the computer is not
running high. If it is try rebooting and see if it goes down.
