Hi
My windows updates have also stopped working.
(windows 7)
Is it possible that pipelining is the cause?
cheers

I can't remember the default settings to stop it, so I can't check if that is the cause!

Are you saying that Windows Update has stopped working itself or are you saying that, as per this thread, a particular update will not install? If so, which one?

You may be interested to know that a rootkit virus had stopped my updates working.
The fix was this. (from MS help)

Not a problem for me - I just needed clarification. Could you post the MS link?
