Same Updates Keep Reloading

Sinluan
Fortunately this is not happening to my OS but to my roommate who is using the XP OS. The last several times she has turned her computer off the automatic update service wants to load five updates. It has done this approximately ten times now and always five updates so something is definitely out of kilter.

Euro symbol and Outlook Express 6

packman
It was always my understanding (perhaps wrongly so) that the Euro symbol is typeable in Outlook Express by using the right-hand Alt key together with the 4 key. Currently, I have OE6 SP1 and, yes, the text window certainly produces the Euro symbol when those two keyboard keys are used.
