Hi Meinolf,
I found the problem! I am running McAfee, and when the security center
update loaded, it defaulted to network settings that only allowed outbound
traffic. When I put iin the IP address range for my network, everything
worked flawlessly.. But thank you very much for your help and guidance. It is
truly appreciated!
