thank you. I'll give that a try.

that's crazy. I tried that link twice, and both times it did this count down process to "download" and then finally said, "okay download now" and I did, and it took me to this link both times. That's definitely not anything for Microsoft or Windows SP1. LOL Link Removed due to 404 Error

Thank you. I'll try this one too. I tried to install from someplace I had found through Google, and after it was supposed to install i got a message that it couldn't install because I didn't have the correct program it was looking for. REALLY! LOL I have Windows Explorer. I have Vista. I...

Thank you so much for your response. Would you kindly direct me to where I locate IF I am using SP1 RC1 and if those updates are already installed. If they are then I'll choose to hide them so that my computer won't continually have me installing them.

My last automatic update for Windows Vista was Jan 19, 08. It was a security update for Windows Vista KB941644. After that, every single update failed, and they were recommended updates. Why would an update that is recommended fail? And even if I try to install manually, it says "fail". I...
