"Still" cannot install updates.

[C.J. Duma]

Re: To my problem posted on 2/20/08 "Cannot install updates". I tried what
Clark suggested and did the same thing Wootzie did with putting it on the
desktop and opening it. But my updates still won't install. Am I missing
something that may have been deleted somehow? "HELP" Again.

Who are you replying to, as you haven't included any previous messages so I
don't know what updates you can't install or what you've done, so I'll just
give you a list of sites to try and say that you may get better help by
asking your question in the Windows Update NG.
