windows update

[Clive]

I Have suddenly been unable to carry out windows update
having previously been able to. When I try to download
any updates it now gives me the following message;

"To install an update, you must accept the license
agreement. The license agreement for one or more of the
items in the following list must still be accepted. If
you do not want to install an item, you can remove it."

Can anybody give me an answer

Clive: What add-on programs / utilities/ toolbars are running (installed) on this box? Do you have a product "Guard-IE" or something similar? Same symptom *may* also be due to running an over-aggressive Popup-Ad remover. The best thing to do, is to close out (exit) all of your startup programs --- except for firewall & antivirus.

This is straight from Windows Update Troubleshooter:
EULA does not pop up after clicking Install Now

Problem Description:
After clicking Install Now at the Windows Update site the End User License
Agreement does not pop up. Instead the windows update site prompts that "To
Install an update, you must accept the License agreement."

Resolutions:
This problem is caused by setting in Guard-IE and can be resolved by
uninstalling the software. The problem can also be avoided by not enabling
"Prevent Opening of Message Boxes" in the Ad-Filters section of the Guard-IE
properties.

To access Guard-IE properties you can right click on the application's icon in
the task bar and select properties. Then click the Ad Filters tab to uncheck "Prevent Opening of Message Boxes"
