Hi,I have emachine 1500w win xp home computer, the automatic update doesn't work its on (automatic download and install the updates at 3:00pm)and there is an update at the Microsoft website I can find it by manual the windows update yesterday realized new windows update but its not downloading automatically.
Try getting the newest Automatic update client, perhaps yours is busted.

If that still doesn't work Microsoft was offering free update cds. I think they still are if you look around on their site.
A couple of other thoughts...........
1. Is your system clock working?
2. Get the Belarc Advisor, run it and check your MS update history down the bottom left of the report. I have come across updates that have failed for some reason. They seem to be available, but won't actually work until you uninstall the failed version.
Cheers
