Guest dr_juice Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 When I go to download the Internet Explorer 7.0 Cumulative Security Update, the client acts as though it is attempting to begin downloading, but it ends up downloading nothing. After a long time, it is still zero percent. I can find no way around it and have to cancel the update. I also notice that automatic updates attempts to download the update and fails every time I go online.
