    I rebooted Mike. Then I set BITs to manual. Then stopped and started service. Starts and stops as requested. I do not have any updates to install, to check if m.update site will D/L and install now. I suppose I have to wait until 'patch' Tuesday.

    Yes I'm glad it's resolved. I appreciate all the help, especially from you & Arie. I'll let you know how I make with the next round of updates. :)

    Mike I tried to D/L and install windows search update and got this:
    Weird that the update size is 0 KB maybe this is a website issue. Please tell me it's not my computer, I don't live close to a tall building. :(

    Not enough info to tell what is happening. This is not a critical update so what is more important right now is all are other updates downloading and installing properly.

    If so forget this for a while as it is not something you just have to have.

    What does a tall building have to do with it, do you have a wireless ISP?

    If all else works then it would not be that anyway.
