    - cannot install KB943985 v2 Hi, wonder if anyone can help? This security update for EXCEL will not install on my machine and now I cannot get exel to run unless I look for the exe in the programs file and start it from there. Each time I try to run excel the application crashes because the install fails. I have tried looking on the web for answers, the only thing I have managed to find is this error number associated with the fault off the Microsoft update site - Error Code: 0x92D. I also tried looking for the LISTool mentioned in another post about this same problem but cannot find it on the microsoft downloads site. I have tried lowering the firewall on my router as well as the windows firewall, stopped my antivirus - all with no success. Can anyone help? My system is running Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] and office 2003 service pack 3 Tag: Windows Update code 20000008 Tag: 250610

    - Microsoft Update Website fails with Error Code 0x80070002 on Vista I have a relatively fresh (4 months old) installation of Windows Vista Business 32bit on my computer. At first, Microsoft Update (not Windows Update, Windows Update still works fine) worked fine. But after i deactivated it and tried to reinstall it using the Windows Update Control Panel it started to fail with the error code 0x80070002. More precisely, it does so after accepting the license here: http://www.update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/muoptdefault.aspx?returnurl=http://www.update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate&ln=de&muopt=6 I already tried emptying the %windir%\SoftwareDistribution Folder (after stopping the Windows Update Service, of course). I also installed CheckSUR, which reported no problems. Then I installed SP1, but the problem still persists.

    - How to Configure Automatic Updates to Use Proxy Server? When you have Automatic Updates turned on, the service that controls Automatic Updates appears to bypass / ignore any proxy server settings that are configured for the MSIE 7 client. Are there registry keys for Automatic Updates that would force it to use a proxy server? I see this question asked not fewer than four times since 2003 in microsoft.public.windowsupdate, but no one ever seems to give a straight answer to the question. If you need a workstation to use a proxy server, then it makes sense that the background services on that workstation should also be configurable to use the same proxy. There must be a way to do this for Automatic Updates? -- Will Tag: Windows Update code 20000008 Tag: 250571

    - Office 2007 Programs Restart After Closing After Vista SP1 Install I installed Vista SP1 on two laptops (work and home). Both laptops have MS Office 2007. After I installed SP1, every time I close any Office program it tells me "Microsoft Office XXX has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you is a solution is available." You then have to click the "Close program" button." Then it restarts the program and I have to close it again manually.

As suggested in a thread on 2-9 by Alicia, I located the pending .xml file but could not delete it. I tried right clicking on it and went into properties, then security in order to allow full control, but it would not allow me to complete that task. Deleting the file manually would not work either. I then went to the microsoft website as suggested by TaurArian and tried to update windows update, but that also failed, it just opened windows update on my system. Any help would be appreciated.

However I still cannot install the update. This update is very important as the computer will automatically cancel the daylight saving 1 week earlier than the new date, which would lead to a serious time problem.

    - SP1-How did it go for you? Just a couple of personal comments on Vista SP1. The Upgrade took about 1-1/2 hours, but installed without a hitch. The first obvious change was performance on several levels. One of the things that has always bothered me about Vista is the "wake" time for a couple of reasons. When waking the computer, sometimes it could take up to a minute for the Welcome screen to appear in order to log on. The second issue was that wireless network service would have to re-connect and it took another 30 seconds. Both of these issues were addressed with SP1, at least in my case. Now we're back to about a 6 second time from "wake" to "work". This was a major improvement. The other performance improvement was in the file copy speed (network to local). What a difference. I use Microsoft Access constantly and there is no question in my mind, that performance seems to have improved here when accessing tables on a network drive. Overall performance seems to be better for me as well. Although most of my work seems to be LAN related and this improvement was expected. I guess that time will tell what else SP1 will bring, but so far, it looks great. I have installed many Service Packs and updates for most OS products, but this one by far has yielded the most noticable improvements. Hats off to the development team for this Service Pack. I would be interested to hear what others are experiencing with this update. Jim Tag: Windows Update code 20000008 Tag: 250409

    - Need Help With IPs to Authorize Windows Update I'm having some problems with firewall authorizations for Windows Update access in a DMZ. In general, I have had good luck getting access to Windows Update when you authorize passage of HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP to these networks: 131.107.0.0 / 16 207.46.0.0 / 16 64.4.0.0 / 18 65.52.0.0 / 14 In addition, I normally authorize these URLs for both http: and https: *.microsoft.com windowsupdate.microsoft.com *.windowsupdate.microsoft.com download.windowsupdate.com The problem I am having is that occasionally the DNS name "download.windowsupdate.com" resolves to some IPs on a huge network from the Limelight load balancing farm. When the client behind the firewall resolves that DNS to an IP, it then connects to the IP and the IP does NOT reverse back to the DNS name download.windowsupdate.com. Instead it resolves to some arbitrary name at the Limelight Network. So the firewall has no way of knowing that the connection is authorized. Further complicating all of this, download.windowsupdate.com does not always resolve to the Limelight load balancers. Microsoft appears to have these IPs pointing to load balancers all over the world. Some of the IPs I saw the download.windowsupdate.com domain name resolve to: 208.111.148.50 8.12.217.124 192.78.223.126 209.84.2.124 etc Microsoft provides a set of DNS names to use with the ISA firewall, and naturally that doesn't work for the IPs above because they don't reverse to Microsoft domain names. No way do I want to authorize the entire Limelight load balancing network into my DMZ. There are a huge number of IPs, and those are probably associated with many hundreds of different organizations. When I do a whois on the IPs Microsoft is using, nothing in the huge range of IPs returned suggests which subset of the range is reserved for Microsoft use. It would be really really nice for those of us who actually think about security if Microsoft would publish openly the range of IPs it is using for Windows Update. Failing that, I am open to ideas here about how can one set up a reasonable set of firewall rules to securely connect to this wideranging set of IPs. -- Will Tag: Windows Update code 20000008 Tag: 250387

    - Display Driver keeps crashing I play this game called silkroad online. This is my 3rd different time playing it and i have enver had a problem in the past, i have taken a few months worth of a break inbetween each play time. Now when i play sometimes i randomly get a message saying my display driver is not responding and i have to reboot the whole system. I have already sent 2 error reports and it has happened 4 times just today. This is getting very annoying and troublesome and any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Laymens Term: Installation w/out problems sp1 I am an average user who couldn't get sp1 to install without the 0x800B0100 code so I hate to say I just saved my important items to disk and restarted from scratch going back to factory orginal and downloading everything again and used not automatic update (manual) and then only would sp1 install without problems. This is 32 bit vista home premium. Tag: Windows Update code 20000008 Tag: 250361

I made a correction on my previous posting, so please read again.

I frequently keep getting error code 20000008 when I update Definition
Update for Windows Defender KB915597 (not Windows Malicious Software Removal
Tool), until it finally installs.

Also, when I update my Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool KB890830 it
keeps asking to update even after it was successfully installed.

I am using Windows Vista Ultimate.

I'll greatly appreciate any advise given. Thanks in advance.
