Guest bobby02169 Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 When I go to microsoft too check for updates and click on either custom or express, it gets stuck on "Checking your computor for the latest version of updates" and the green bar keeps scanning as if it is checking. I am using IE6 with windows NT and active x is enabled and under services, automatic updates and messenger are enabled. I could do updates until about a week ago. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Bobby
Guest Engel Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Hello Bobby, >> and the green bar keeps scanning as if it is checking.<< The most likely cause is that the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) is not working properly, isn't started, or needs upgrading. Dial ª- Fixit is NOT for Vista- Try this Suggest cleaning up the system (clearing out all the Temp/Tmp folders, and included all offline content, clearing the browser TIF, Delete Cookies , do a Disk CleanUp. Please confirm your system clock and Time Zone also the Date set properly, Dial-ª- Fix http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix Run this program with all the functions activated. Scroll down about 2/3 of the way to Download Dial-a-fix I hope this post is helpful. Let us know how it works ºut. -- "bobby02169" wrote: > When I go to microsoft too check for updates and click on either custom or > express, it gets stuck on "Checking your computor for the latest version of > updates" and the green bar keeps scanning as if it is checking. > I am using IE6 with windows NT and active x is enabled and under services, > automatic updates and messenger are enabled. > I could do updates until about a week ago. > Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. > Thank you > Bobby >

Guest Engel Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 Hi Bobby, Sounds like something is deliberately interfering with your downloads, perhaps malware, perhaps not. Maybe the server was busy at the time when you try. I test the Primary download location link right now and is ready to D/L Try to D/L the file using a different PC. The size of the file is small, only 328 kb and copy the file to your PC Be sure your system is clean before you try to D/L the updates from Microsoft. Have you try the solution given by TaurArian. What happen? -- "bobby02169" wrote: > Hi Engel, > Ok I did what you and cleaned everything up and still no luck. > I was unable to download dial-a-fix.
