Windows Update and Aol 9

[P Killington]

After installing a router at a friends house who uses aol
9.0..(??? YUK ???)
I foung i was unable to access The windows update site.
I think this has somthing to do with SSL as other secure
sites ie banking sites are also a problem.

I dont know if this existed before the Router went in..and
im sure its an AOL thing so i geuss its quite common.

Any help appreciated..

We definitely will need to know the version of Windows they are running, and
if SP2 is installed. It does make a difference.

Please post back and let us know this information and then we can provide a
better solution.

Thank you

Thank you, that very well may make a difference.

Try the following and see if it helps. However, I can not guarantee that it
will make a difference with AOL.
