First, you can go yourself to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and click on Product Updates and see what's what.

Second, you'll be better off removing the automatic Critical Updates thing in Add/Remove Programs and just checking for yourself at Windows Update (in IE Tools menu, Windows Update) every couple of weeks.

Please let us know what works.

My Gateway desktop has Microsoft's Windows Update notification installed. The other day I got the pop-up window saying there was a critical update available. I clicked the "Show me" button and got to the Update page just fine, but when I clicked "Product Updates" I haerd the click sound and nothing happened. In the lower corner of the page was a yellow caution icon over a white box and the word error. Anybody know what happened? The last time I used the update service everything worked just fine! Thanks
