Do a search on your system for the hosts file. WinXP: START > SEARCH and enter
HOSTS. For WinME/98SE/95: START > FIND > FILES AND FOLDERS.
I mentioned the different operating systems cause I tend to forget tad bits
from previous posts (since we go through so many here), and forgot what OS you
said you had.

hi Troth,
Well this solution also did not work. I looked for Windows\Drivers\etc\Hosts
but I don't have such a file. Also tried to uncheck "automatic look for
updates" and also unchecked which cookies could come in or not but that
wasn't the problem also.
Still when I go to the update site it freezes.
I'm glad you are still looking for me because I really don't know anymore
where to turn to with this.
It is so crazy because for a week ago I never had a problem with the update
site and nothing has changed on my computer.
Sylvia.
