What you are seeing when you visit the Windows Update site is a known
problem and started happening about two weeks ago. The problem is server
side not with your PC and the Microsoft's Windows Update team originally
denied any responsibility for the problem however the light has started to
come on and they have now changed their stance to "we are investigating".
I suggest you wait a few days and try again. Since Win Me like all Win 9x
operating systems is out of support don't expect those concerned at
Microsoft to expend much effort or be in a rush to get this problem fixed.
