Hi,

I noticed that my windows update aint working like it should be, liek I can't find any updates when I know that there should be a few that I have not downloaded. So I was wondering how can I reinstall the Windows Update ActiveX component?

ive never heard of this happening to anyone, and i dont think theres any way of re-installing it exclusively, the windows update website is supposed to install the latest version, so i guess you could delete all traces of windows update from your pc (could be bad, do it at your own risk), then visit the web site, and it SHOULD re-install. failing that, you could do a repair installation of windows
