[DUG-OFFTOPIC]: on the subject of Xp

[Paul A Norman]

Just briefly,   I'm too scarred at the moment to post to MS newsgroups, somehow got hammered with spam and bogus bounces last time even thoughh I posted sensibly.   Has any one had these things happen to them,       1)  Xp update keeps saying that there is a new update to install - auto downloaded already - but its always the same update. It seems according to "update history" that it has already updated with the same update some 17 times now I think. ALso tells me to let it  do security updates that have been done weeks before. (Yes I do run an updated virus checker!)       2) When you are in Xp help egine (for Xp issues) and you click on any link in the help system, instead of jumping to the link or opening the control panel or what ever is supposed to happen, any small icon in the help page is replicated for each click that you make on the jump link. You end up with a line of small icons going accross the page as shown here (if images pass throught the offtopic server scripts).       Anyon solved these ones?   TIA   Paul A Norman   [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://PaulANorman.com   Ph NZ 021 782 433 Fx NZ 021 292 2433   Overseas:   Ph. +6421782433 Fax +64212912433   P.O.
