I have Windows XP Home Edition and have been trying to update my Microsoft
Office Programme. The "Downloading Updates" Icon has appeared in my Taskbar
but nothing is downloading. I have loads of memory left so am not sure what
the problem is...Any ideas??
 
that url isn't working... it redirects to
http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/v5Consumer/thanks.aspx?ln=en and you
