    slowness....

    last night my pooter was slow...

    so did some tuning and scans..

    result;... no bugs, no viruses, even did a "Wash & go" scan.. total clean hard drive... disc scan error check dune..

    pooter is running fast again... but!! Microsoft still insist that i need a update it's a...

    "cumulative security update for Internet explorer 6 service pack 1 (KB832894)"

    i keep downloading it and installing it.. must have dune it 12 + times now...
    dam thing keeps coming back.. even after a re-boot...

    I'm thinking a trip to the shed... and returning with a large lump hammer to solve this most annoying problem.. or maybe just shoot the dam thing

    Von,

    I'm not sure what's going on with your machine, but KB832894 is MS04-004, a security update from Feb '04.

    If the install didn't work during an update you'll never get to see any error messages.

    Download the update direct from Microsoft (save it locally) here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

    The run it manually, see if it kicks up any error messages.

    s1opp,

    I've done that mate.. here's my history.. see next post..

    it tells me that I've been successful every time.. but it comes back un tells me i have a update... and yes it's the same one..

    I've had a look in my control panel and it's not there.. cause I'm on Explorer 9..
    think Microsoft are trying to give me a update that i can't use.. ?
