I have Windows Xp Pro sevice pack 3.
When I use Internet Explorer to go Windows Update site it opens only white empty page.
That white page has some source code:

Other pages work as they should.
If I go to Windows update using Firefox, I get page saying I should IE 7...
I am not sure but I think that I get automatical updates normally.
I have tried to add Windows update to trusted site but it didn't help.

What should I do to fix it?

I'd install the JRE ( Java Runtime Environment ) from http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp ( sun microsystems ). Your system may be lacking java script support.

Java works in my Firefox, but should try intalling it anyway?

I have them as trusted, but it didn't help.

I also noticed someting: If I go to Windows update with Firefox having User Agent Switcher on ( It makes my browser say that it is IE 7) i get same white empty page. But if I have User Agent Switcher off, i get normal page saying that I should use IE 7.

Do you have ActiveX set like this:

Sammel · « **Reply #6 on:** October 25, 2008, 01:01:05 PM »

Where can I find those? Somewhere in IE:s settings?

Broni · « **Reply #7 on:** October 25, 2008, 01:11:39 PM »

Tools>Internet Options>Security tab>Custom level button.

The log is clean.
Close IE.
Go Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools, and click on Internet Explorer (no add-ons). Same thing?

Sammel · « **Reply #12 on:** October 26, 2008, 01:36:56 PM »

Yes, same thing.

Broni · « **Reply #13 on:** October 26, 2008, 02:25:00 PM »

Did you: Uncheck the "require server verification" checkbox

If you did, in IE, go Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab, click on "Reset" button.
Restart computer.

Do you use router?

Sammel · « **Reply #14 on:** October 28, 2008, 08:11:30 AM »

I have HomePNA (Housing community shares one ADLS connection with it to everyone).
So i assume that there must be router in data center.
