Windows update

[Pierre]

I tried to download window update and it doesn't work at
all. The maximum I can get is 33%. Could you explain to
me why that update doesn't work. Thank you.

Microsoft has acknoledged they are eXPeriencing DNS issues with
some of the Windows Update servers. They are working feverishly
to correct the problem.

Possible Solution:

1. Clear IE cache.

2. Clear DNS cache: "ipconfig /flushdns" from cmd.exe

3. If no joy, wait 24 hours try the site again tomorrow.

As Carey's posting above notes, sometimes they have a capacity issue, and
the best thing to do is just wait until the next day. It is almost certainly
not a problem at your end.
