Updating Windows 2000
Everytime I use Windows Update now it says Download and installation failed everytime I try to use the update feature to download the latest fixes and updates. Why is it doing this?.

try downloading updates manually, they are in ms windows 2000 home page
Ya, but that's a ***** to do. Does anyone know what might be wrong?
Hmm, I can't seem to find the article. But, I always delete all my temp files and cookies and stuff.... Something is messed I think.
Ok, that sounds like a good idea. I'll delete any Active X controls and delete the contents of my Windows Update folder.
Darn, I can't find the folder that activeX controls are in Windows 2000, does anyone know where they are?
Well folks, that didn't do it. I deleted the content of my windows update folder and removed all the ActiveX controls. God damnit this is pissing me off. I thank everyone for their help though.
Does anybody else have any ideas?
