10 for Vista security updates do not settle. Have tried everything I can find on the web, here, difficulty-it... ad nauseam.
Windows Update tried to install "10 updates important" for several days, and all have failed to install. I have tried everything I can even, at one point, purchase ImproveSpeed that one of the web pages of Microsoft directed me, claiming that would fix it. Nothing I've tried has solved the problem and I've tried everything but manually change the registry which I don't feel comfortable doing so. I spent $ 40.00 for ImproveSpeed and that has not worked... Please, someone, please help. This is nutz.
Bob
Something seems not good.
Agreed.
Did you ever get McAfee Security Center updated (for example, definitions)?
Have you already followed steps #8, #9 & #10?
You have a functional antivirus application (with updated definitions) installed now?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rhea answer Desk technology, was correct: since "Mainstream support" for Vista SP2 ended on April 10, 2012, Microsoft offers is no longer support for security updates. Similarly, MS has not offered this support to users of Windows XP to the last few years. [Yes, this is all very confusing!]
PS: If a technician of the Office of response can not get your problem solved in the first 15 minutes (free), they will want to access your computer remotely in order to help you further (in most cases)- but only after you have paid the Premium support fees. Actually, I was very surprised to hear that McAfee won't charge you anything for their support - unless you had already purchased McAfee Total Protection.

Today, when opening Firefox, I was informed of a security and stability upgrade was available. I downloaded the upgrade.
As a result, I was unable to access my home page or any other page on the web.
Then I tried to download the latest version without uninstalling the existing version on my computer to avoid losing my favorites and bookmarks.
During the download process, I was informed that he had been interrupted, but clicking OK will continue.
I then started the installation wizard I was apparently successful.
However, I can access all pages on the web.
How can I recover the installation of Firefox that existed yesterday, before I downloaded the update?

I don't have my key code for windows (registration card was not with the computer when I bought it). My carrier apparently deleted the key during my computer repair code. My retailer where I purchased the computer didn't either. How can I retrieve my key code number?
The Windows product key is usually displayed on the sticker on the underside of the computer.
However, you can also get it by running the Belarc Advisor or the Magic Jellybean Key Finder.

I tried several times to install the updated Microsoft Security XP sent to my computer. Does not load. The full message is security for Microsoft.net framework 1.1 SP1 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 x 86 update (KB2698023).
I contacted Microsoft technical support and was told by the Remy that XP is is more fully supported. This might include and manipulate my machine, but it would cost me $100. Don't want to spend that money on this old Emachine of 5 year. It runs and performs very well except for this NEW issue!... Help?If they want to charge you it's probably a scam

System: vista home premium w/serv pack 2

The last time I tried it, he first gave me an error code of 8024200d, then I reinstalled it.
