I need to update my ME on my desktop in order to be able
to rid it of the worm virus...no .exe files can be
started up as it is.

My laptop (which I use) is XP, and I cannot seem to find
any ME updates through the laptop as the Microsoft
website automatically detects the XP and finds me updates
relating to this.

Any ideas how to get the ME updates???

To find updates for an operating system or browser other than that being used
to access the Windows Update site you need to instead use the Windows Update
Catalogue which is accessed from the Windows Update site.

To access the Windows Update Catalogue you will need to visit the
WindowsUpdate (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) site and choose in the
left hand pane to "Personalize Windows Update" and then check the box in the
right hand pane to "Display the link to
the Windows Update Catalogue". Save Settings and now click the new link to
the Catalogue that has been added to the left hand pane.

MS KB 323166 - "HOW TO: Download Windows Updates and Drivers from the
Windows Update Catalog" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=323166).
