- Trying to update
- Posted by Nicholas on August 30th, 2003
Manually install the latest Windows Update controls:
For Windows 98 and Windows Millenium Edition:
Download the controls from http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...ansi/iuctl.cab and
save them to your desktop. Extract the .cab file, following the steps below:
1. Go to the desktop and right click the iuctl.cab file.
2. Click "Extract to."
3. Point to a known location (like the desktop) and click "OK."
4. Go to the location you selected and right click on the iuctl.inf file.
5. Click "Install."

That's because this person, Jupiter Jones, is full of
suggestions that don't work/help! May be MVP but didn't
help me at all. Try writing Microsoft direct. This person
will just waste your time!!!

the servers or something. Tanx 4 all you help.

Shawn;
Did you change anything else?
Or did your computer just finally take it?

To the person writing with "Same Problem". I, too, feel
that "Jupiter Jones is trouble. I went here to Post a
message to everyone that I had contacted Microsoft and
was told that the Site was being repaired, due to the
first posting about the "Blaster" worm. When I suggested
that people try writing Microsoft, "Jones" came back with
a Posting that was very insulting, berating and
degrading, indicating that "it had to be something on my
end" and not a problem with the Update Site, even though
Microsoft told me it was a Site problem. What a hypocrite!
All I was trying to do was offer help and constructive
advice but this person chose to belittle and become
confrontageous, yet he claims you're being this way. I
stated that we should contact Microsoft and said that
they were very polite, honest and helpful and to
please "be nice". For that, I was ridiculed and all but
called an idiot and liar. Good for you! Might I suggest
writing the MVP Support Group and filing a
complaint? "God-Head" attitudes have no place where
people are just trying to be helpful to one another! Best
wishes and good luck.
