I have encountered a little bit of a problem which hopefully someone will help me solve.
 
I have just run Windows Update and downloaded the critical updates pack (the one which includes IE6 from Dec 13). I noticed that I also had a few other security updates aswell.
 
After rebooting my machine, I decided to return to the site and continue with the outstanding updates. When I clikc the link for windows update, the page begins to load and then prompts me to download redir from microsoft. ?!?!
 
This means I cannot get back into the site to continue with the updates.
 
I am running:
Win 2K SP2
IE 6 (with the latest critical updates pack, seemingley the cause of the problem)
ZoneAlarm
Download Accelerator Plus
over a 56K dial-up.
 
If this is a setting included in the update to stop automatic running of remote files etc, could someone please tell me where it is.
 
All help much appreciated.
 
Regards
