XP Pro Windows update problems

by peter.berger@genexsrvcs . Updated 23 years, 10 months ago

Fresh XP Pro install. Went to do Windows updates from windowsupdate.microsoft.com and I get this message, even thought I set ALL security settings to low. Any ideas/help???

“The Windows Update software did not update successfully. Below are some suggestions to help you proceed:
You may have clicked No when prompted to accept the Trust Certificate. To allow the Windows Update site software to install, click Yes when presented with the Security Warning dialog box.
Your Internet Explorer security settings may be set too high. To install the updated software and access Windows Update, Internet Explorer security must be set to medium or lower, and active scripting and the download and initialization of ActiveX controls must be enabled.
Note These are the default settings for Internet Explorer. For more information about Internet Explorer security and instructions on how to change your security settings, read Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) Article Q174360. “
