Jack:
Thanks I reread my question, and I don't understand what I said. I had to do a system recovery from my HP disk. Windows ME, I had trouble updateing to IE6 but got past thjat OK now. When I go to 'start' and try to open Windows Update, the web page appears, but no error messages or it won't start to scan for available updates. If I try to close this window, nothing happens it seems locked-up. I need to Ctrl-Alt-Del, and then find out "Internet explorer- not responding.

Begin by attempting to repair IE6.
Navigate to Add-Remove Programs, and begin to uninstall IE 6. You will be offered three options, one of which is to repair it. Select it and proceed through the restart. -- Jack E.

I found it, I wasn't looking for Microsoft, anyway I did the repair option
and then a restart. My pc still will not "scan" to pick which updates I need, and once that webpage loads, it locks up, and a crtl alt del is necessary yet.
