You're welcome Paul. Although in the end you didn't need the link's copy of
scr56en.exe, I'm glad you've got the issue sorted out. Odd that MS appear to
have pulled it - but it seems that they are gradually pulling Win9x and
other early stuff from their download (support?) site. Sign of the times!

Thank you for your promt reply. I got it.
But, incidentally, the problem solved it-self spontaneously. While WU
insisted it could not find the programme, it out of sudden found it AFTER
I
activated the Windows Logon so that there was a registered user... This
was
amazing because the computer had a normal Internet access without that and
Win98/ME does not require that users start a session. Anyway, it works
now.
Regards.

I have reinstalled WinME on a old computer because of a disk crash.
However,
I cannor run Windows update becasue I consistently get a message
telling
me
that I need to download Visula Basic Scripting Support (avaialble
locally).
When I try to download, it fails. I looked at the Microsoft website
and
found that I could coorect the situation by downloading scr56en.exe (on
page
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303107 . However, if try to dowload
this
file, it says me the download is unavailable.

What can I do ?
