XP pro not updating

Hi guys ive been off the net for a while as my computer got sick so decided i was gonna trying keep my computer all up to date and in tip top condition as i didnt bother previously.

Extract to a folder and run Installer.bat

Then set automatic updates to "Notify me but dont download or install them"
A shield pops up next to the clock when it has updates to download. Check through the updates and deselect any with WGA in it then dowload and install as normal.

HTH

11 D/L's seems a few peeps have got stung by ebay dodgy goods
