I8PP Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 Perhaps IE has no default language set, which i think causes this problem. Tools, Options, Languages button and choose one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JodyWatts Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 (edited) Try deleting the c:\Program Files\WindowsUpdate directory, then clear your cache in IE ... and try again. Edited September 20, 2003 by Big_Daddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E32 Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 Hi Ripgut, I just spent the past two days fighting with my computer over the same thing. In my case, which I think may be similar to yours, it was because my computer couldn't reach anything at akamai.net. Recently Microsoft decided to host their updates on akamai's servers and all update events are redirected there now. Akamai is one of the largest hosting services in the world and they have hundreds (if not thousands) of servers. There's LOTS of sections of websites that run off their servers that you may not notice, such as images and style sheets (.css). Try to go to www.akamai.com and see if you can even get that website. One of the ways I found it was trouble with akamai was when I tried to reach msnbc.com. The style sheets (.css) on that site all run off akamai servers so I was getting a real screwed up version of their site without them. To see where sites are getting some of their data from you can click 'View>Source' in Internet Explorer and look through the code for any reference to any akamai.net or .com servers. If you are having the same trouble I had, post here again and I'll see if I can help you with what I had to do (it was involved). I never really did determine why I couldn't reach akamai (yes, I did check my 'host' file ;)), but I can't help think it might have been some kind of worm that's now blocking akamai like the original blaster worm tried to block msupdate. If anyone else has had a similar experience please post here so we can try to figure this thing out? All the best, E32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resolutions: This is a generic error number which indicates a problem with the SSL connection with our server. Some customers have resolved this issue by disabling or uninstalling internet acceleration software. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Suggestion 2 ============ The error may occur because the language-setting in Internet Explorer is missing.

Correlation not yet determined but an avenue to check if you have MSN Messenger installed. Error 0x800A138F when scanning for updates Problem Description: This problem occurs when you are trying to scan for updates. When you scan the machine for updates, and then click on one of the active links in the left pane, the installation process does not complete. Resolutions: This behavior indicates that the scan process encountered an error it could not recover from. You may be able to determine the specific error by looking in the Windows Update.log file, located in the Windows folder on Windows XP, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition. The folder is located in the Winnt folder on Windows 2000. Temporarily disabling antivirus and firewall programs while you use Windows Update may solve this problem. Be sure to enable them again when you complete the update process. You might also be able to resolve this issue by deleting all of the content in Program Files\Windowsupdate and Program Files\Windowsupdate\V4 except for the iuhist.xml file located in Program Files\Windowsupdate\V4. taken from http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/troubleshoot/ i have no ideas of my own, if it's still not working :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 k, i reformated to day and see if that would help and nothing WTF! You said you reformatted today right, so in the process was this because a new system you built? Common Error is that your date and time and time zone settings are wrong. So Therefore go and Check your date, time and time zone settings and make sure they're are correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
