Based on IE... what's the point?

Avant Browser 10.2 Build 51, Released: 04.11.2006

What's New in the Latest Version?

It still buggers the XP Pro registry, so nothing useful is new.

Run Avant (any 10.2 build)
Try to Run Windows Update - program fails to run
Run IE - allow it to become default browser
Run Windows Update - runs correctly
Run Avant (any 10.2 build)
Try to Run Windows Update - program fails yet again

It contains additional features to IE: tab browsing, built-in RSS
feeds etc and runs faster according to the author. I've been using
it for 12 months.

Do you have a link to 10.1.40 anywhere?
I've currently gone back to my latest which is 10.1.35.

Your success appears to be unusual.

Thanks for that, I've d/l 10.1.40 now and I'll keep it in reserve.

At the moment I'm using the latest 10.2.51 and the problem I had
with other recent versions (two instances of Avant.exe started after
a while) hasn't appeared so far. However I never go near Windows
Update so I can't tell if there's a problem there too.

I use a bookmarked URL to access the Windows Update site not the Windows Update Manager. Maybe that's
why it works for me? This is the url <http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/>. Avant is my default browser.

Windows Update is a program (wupdmgr.exe) and your saying it "worked fine"
for you was pretty misleading if you had never even tried to use it.

Windows Update is a service offered by Microsoft. It can be accessed in many ways. One is via the Windows
Update Manager (the program wupdmrg.exe) another is in IE via Tools>Windows Update. Or you can bookmark
the site (as I have done) and visit it that way. So the real issue is with the Windows Update Manager program
and Avant.

I stand by my statement that I have had no problems with Windows Update (the service) and Avant.
