windows update

@acanac.net		ACANAC blocking DNS for windows update

Not sure how to report this so I'm wondering if anyone else is having problems with windows update. IE keeps showing Page Not Found everytime I try to access MS windows update or microsoft.com. I tried it with kproxy and I can connect.

check your computer... when you get a problem like this, there is a good chance that you computer is infected with some sort of virus or spyware...

As somebody said, this could be the famous 1-April virus, which disables your access to some places like MS update and official anti virus websites.

Ok, I brought home a laptop from work and noticed that I can't get xxx.theweathernetwork.com on either computer. No way the work laptop has conficker virus.

I was able to access the microsoft.com and weathernetwork sites using freeproxyserver.ca what's going on.

It can be cause by explorer 8 (just a wild guess here but we nerver know) i did install it on my computer but can't use it , it just close after i try to use it. For the weather channel did you try another browser like firefox or chrome ?

Please IM me the settings (current IP, Static IP's user or dynamic pool + you current DNS address) if the problem persists.

Thanks

I brought my laptop to work (we use TerraGo Networks) and I instantly loaded the windows update page. There may be a problem with the DNS server. At home I bypassed my router and connected directly to the modem but nothing changed.

Mississauga, ON		 It seems like a MTU setting problem. Can you please post your MTU settings.

MTU was set at default 1500 - changed it to 1492 and got the windows update to work. Thanks.

Mississauga, ON		 Not a problem. Was the MTU value set to 1500 on one of our modems or are you using your own?

It was my own modem (a Dlink) but I changed the MTU settings on my router (DLINK DIR-655)and not the modem. I think the router modifies the modem settings when it reboots.
