My laptop would not download this file, Windows Update Agent, I guess an updater.
So I downloaded it on my desktop and transferred to the laptop via jump drive.
Do you think it will do the trick? By MS, version 6.2.29.0.
SFXCAB.EXE

2. Yes:
2) Are you referring to the Restricted Sites in the "IE Internet Properties
Security" settings  panel,


4. Are you sure? I used Safe Mode to run an antivirus, and at the beginning it said it
could be used to remove one or the other, if I understood correctly:
4) You must have an Administrator account on the computer as well as any other
normal User accounts that were created. In other words, you can not delete it.


5. Thanks
5) NO!!!


6. I had, it didn't
6) Reboot into "Safe Mode with Networking" and try accessing Windows Update.


Thank you so much, Eddie, for replying. I have run just about any free antivirus
there is and no problem found. I have another or so to give a whirl. I really dread
restoring to original format and doing all updates, etc.

If it weren't for the loading of strange websites, it would be normal, except for
the constant disconnects of the internet or wi-fi, or whatever. It actually acts
like it knows to avoid any MS website that will benefit me for my system or browser.

Above insert: In another of my posts, I mentioned something about an install agent. I couldn't
download it using the laptop's browser, but did it from my tower and brought it to
the laptop. I haven't executedd it. By chance, is it an updater? I think it was
posted yesterday, to find it by date.

Thanks again,
Jan1
