To Wilhelmus How in the hell did you figure that out? I've been googling forever and at microsoft came to a dead end with their "pay us and we will tell you how to fix it" answer. Any way thanks for that invaluable info. Much appreciated. [Edited by chrism1367 on 2006-01-13 03:28:26]

1) Check your firewall to make sure ports are open and that program is allowed to access the internet. 2) try finding a manual update on the internet and save it somewhere on your computer and running it manually. Hope it helps.

Pressing "Shift+Delete" only bypasses the confirmation dialog when you delete a file or folder. It still goes to the recycle bin. I could be wrong but I think that is what that particular hotkey combination does. Oops I am wrong.

Remember to backup your files BEFORE attempting to repair or reinstall Windows. If you reinstalled windows (or repair-installed) with a different username than the original one you had then they may be in the original directory ("C:\Documents and Settings\<old user name>...) Hope that helps.

Hi I'm new to this forum but I thought this would be the best place to post this question. I have Windows XP Home SP2 and there is a service named "Application Management" listed in the services menu, but according to Microsoft this service isn't supported in Windows XP Home Edition only XP Pro. I get errors in the Event Viewer/System logs. It's hard to narrow down what I am running at the time the error occurs. Has anyone had this problem, and if so is there a fix for this? Also why do I have this service if it isn't supported in XP Home? Any help/fix would be appreciated. BTW, Microsoft's site said it is a known issue and in order to get support I have to pay for it. Thats not gonna happen. Anyway thanks in advance.
