I have to completely agree with all of you in regards to SP2, I can't Update
my Windows page at all. It won't let me, I keep getting error messages. I've
tried to update off the Microsoft page a zillion times and now I've
officially given up. I did check to see if it was my anti-virus program and
well that's sort of messed up at this point in time. I'm thinking about
calling up my internet provider and asking for Tech help. I'm not sure what
the heck has happened. I haven't been able to update for MONTHS now.
It's massively insane.
I wish someone would answer us soon. I contacted Microsoft but got "dead"
answers, so I'm not sure if they are willing to help or they don't know
either.
Gosh, I'm stumped.
Gee and Bill Gates just gets to sit there and look pretty, collecting $$ for
making this possible for all of us. Gee Whiz!
