Sorry, Tell, but your arrow missed the apple this time... <QP> What are the differences between Windows Updates, Automatic Updates, and Microsoft Updates? While Windows Update provides you with updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other Microsoft software, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live. Automatic updating is a feature that allows you to set your PC to automatically download and install updates using either service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your Windows PC current. </QP> Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx
From: MrSoftware on 2 Apr 2010 02:22 [1] Niether Norton or McAffee was ever on this computer. [2] Had no problems with AVG. WU problems started with just the MS security products (a) MS Windows Security Essentials and (b) MS firewall. [3] The problems depends on the MS WU site accessed. I get (a) a blank MS WU page or (b) error code 0x8DDD0004. [4] No other problems other than MS WU. [5] MS WUAU (..Automatic Updates) is enabled. [6] MS Security Essentials seems to update itself OK. [7] MS Wu site http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com is a blank page. [8] Have not tried the Fixit you mentioned. Will try and post after this.

From: MrSoftware on 2 Apr 2010 03:02 [1] I tried MS Fixit 50202 - Reset WU components - in both (a) default (b) agressive mode. Neither mode worked to fix the problem. I go to the primary MS WU site (www.windowsupdate.microsoft.com) and come up with a blank page.

[1] Yes. (a) I did as you instruct and the WuWebControlClass comes up fine. (b) Previously I checked the directory; C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files and the MUWebControClass was always there. ID is {6E32070A-766D-4EE6-879C-DC1FA91D2FC3}. Version is 7.4.7600.226 [2] The muweb.dll is in directory C:\Windows [3] The wuweb.dll is in directories (a) C:\Windows\system32 and (b) C:\Windows\system32\dllcache The DLL versions are correct (7.4.7600.226) but that is meaning less since MS has no 'component verifier' to scan a software device (multiple *.exe and *.dll) files with multiple hash codes (including partial file section scans).
