sherri,

It may just be a simple case of clearing out the Temporary Internet
Files, the Windows Update folder, or deleting the software controls
(ActiveX) for Windows Update . Follow the steps for Win ME here :
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=319585

**Delete the contents of C:\WUTemp if present.**

NOTE: For the " Remove the Windows Update ActiveX Controls " skip
step 2. The iuctl.dll and iuengine.dll are located in the
WINDOWS\System folder. Remove the Update Class file found in the
WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files folder by right clicking it and
choosing Remove. Now do step 5 or manually download the Windows
Update software controls from :
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/cab/x86/ansi/iuctl.cab
save them to your desktop. Extract the .cab file following the steps
below:
1. Go to the desktop and right click the iuctl.cab file.
2. Click "Extract to."
3. Point to a known location (like the desktop) and click "OK."
4. Go to the location you selected and right click on the iuctl.inf
file.
5.Click "Install."

If the above does not resolve the issue, go to Start, Run , and type
this in :
msconfig
Click OK or press Enter. Click the Startup tab. Look for
the .lnk relating to Windows Update there , not .ink.
Please post back with what you find in Msconfig if my first
suggestion does not resolve the issue.
