Microsoft Windows Update Site is Slow!!
Anyone notice how slow the Product Update site is via Microsoft is ??
I cannot get any better speed than about 4k on either my ADSL or the T3 I have access to ... I bet they have a DDOS going on because of the TV news and to many users trying to get the patchs at the same time...
Updates on XP as of 12/23/01
I did post a monster 25.5 + meg file for those looking for all the
updates on XP both Pro and Home
www.bagpipes.net/files/xp-utilities/x86WinXP.zip
There are 23 updates in this file
Directories are pretty well intact as I got them from MS
I did prune the tree depth.... (grin)
There is also 23 info links back to the MS site
I did not try and d/l any of the extra drivers on the XP site
that are used for all the accessories... NIC cards, scanners
and other devices
Since only the cream of the crop hang out here, the manual installs
should be no problem and MS cannot fix there slow site.
