So far everything is running that I have always used.
I'm sure Firefox is a good browser. I've read it is. I may eventually try it out. I've heard some have to still use IE for some programs.
I just don't think I'm ready to do the switching. I can hardly walk and chew gum at the same time. Oldtimers /Age must be getting to me.
You don't have to switch. I use both

I have learned that toolbars are very hard to remove.
Might be able to remove it via HJT.

cneasttx -- are you getting any error messages when trying to update Windows?

No, it just says some updates could not be installed. Which was all of them. So none have been installed since the first part of this month. There are 11 of them.

I was having this same issue last week...it had to do with the Update Agent. Follow these steps and it should fix it for you.

Download and save this file from the Microsoft website then follow the steps below. Remember where you stored the file as you will need the exact location when running it.


Update Agent


Click Start, click Run, click Browse, locate the file that you saved above, and then click Open.

Add the /wuforce switch to the end of the run command, and then click OK. For example, the run command should appear as the following (where x is the drive letter and "file location" is the folder):

x:\"file location"\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x86.exe /wuforce

Click Run.

Follow the steps to complete the wizard.

Your updates should install now.

There is an option to remove them from the install que. Do that and then download and install again
