    SpywareBlaster shouldn't be able to conflict with WindowsUpdate - have you installed anything else recently?

    Thanks,

    Yvon,

    My first guess is, you do have ActiveX disabled one way or the other. Please check - and if so, enable this in case of using Windows Update.

    regards.

    Tx Paul...but it was something else...

    In the HELP with Windowsupdate pages, I found this and it corrected my problem...
    ----------------------------------------
    Problem Description:
    You may receive error 0x80070485 when trying to access the Windows Update Site.

    This is due to a missing or corrupted cabinet.dll file


    Resolutions:
    Please reinstall the Windows Installer. (pour déinstaller...delete msiexec.exe)

    For Windows 98 and Windows Me

    Please install the InstMsiW.exe from
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...d8-c094-4255-b702-de3bb768148f&DisplayLang=en
    --------------------------------------------------
    This might help somebody else
