Unable to access Windows Updates

Hi, My W2K PC was setup to automatically prompt me to install the latest windows update. I noticed that I had not been prompted in the last couple of months. I attempted to go the Windows Update page and check for updates manually. Unfortunately, it will not connect to the site: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com. A Internet Explorer window opens but it just hangs and does not connect. I use Spybot regularly for spyware and I have Avast! version 4.6 home edition for virus software and I use Firewall X-treme by Stomp Soft. I have turned all 3 off and attempted to connect to the windows update page but without success. Any Ideas? Thanks! JMac
