scheduled updates are disabled???

[Guest]

Hi, I have no idea y, but i have tried to, via synchronize, schedule an
update of my home page every 5 mins or so, but I get an error message at each
scheduled time saying "scheduled updates are disabled", so my question is,
how do i enable "scheduled updates" and more to the point, how did i disable
them?

thankyou for any help in this problem, that I've spent hours so far trying
to fix,

Using Windows xp sp2, almost new load on pc from factory.

thankyou

In Admin tools/services, you might find the Task Scheduler to be a disabled
service.

Hi, thankyou for responding, no the task scheduler works, it works fine for
the mcafee updates and the process is definately running, it just seems to
be a problem trying to schedule synchronization? It sync's on login/logout
without any problems, just not using the scheduler grrrrr! Thankyou for your
time.

Try this. Put the following text in a .reg file and double-click it.
Hope it works.

 REGEDIT4 
 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Webcheck]
"NoScheduledUpdates"=dword:00000000
