RE: Unable to access Windows Update site.

Actually windows update is somwhat retired,the replacement is now "microsoft
update".To get the software,go to microsoft.com,select downloads,select
microsoft update.Also,after SP2 is installed,one should open internet
options,
settings,view objects,R.click on each (one @ a time),select,update.....
