Dan:
Thanks, though I have the same problem and in my case that does not help.
I have another problem, and that is when I go to the Windows Update site, I get error 0x800C0005 and have not been able to repair that. The items on the Microsoft site that suggests what to do are NOT for Windows ME (I have a Dimension 8100).
In addition, I can't get into certain sites on IE6 (though I can get to most sites, but not where it redirects for instance). Anything there that can help fix it?

This Microsoft KB Article will be a good starting point. There is more information available HERE that also addresses the specific error message. Failing that, there is an abundance of information to be gleaned from a little Google searching and/or, from the MS Windows Update Troubleshooter.
