    Windows XP & Internet Explorer Issues.

    I am using the expired no longer supported Windows XP with the Internet Explorer web browser & Internet Explorer is operatiing very poor. I think the main problem is is that I can not get any Windows Updates. I get an error message every time. Well to make a long story short I need to get Windows Explorer & the Windows Updates to operate like they should. Also I have tried Google Chrome & Firefox as well. I'm having the same results as the Internet Explorer. Can anyone tell me what is actually wrong here? For one I need to get Windows Update to function. I'm lost guys all I know is Windows XP is no longer supported.

    Do you have SP3 or not? You should download a copy and save it somewhere. Who knows when MS is going to take it down for good.

    Instead of going to Windows Update, you can try grabbing the updates from Autopatcher.

    Which version of IE are you trying? Definitely install IE8 first.

    Can you give us more information on that?

    Winxp working properly also updates which will be made automatically before shutting down. maybe once a month. just let it be done dont touch anything. yes. since some weeks or months one cannot go to update-site anymore. Am i right?
    to prove what the asker is saying i will surf with IE8 for some time. Firefox working properly noscript and ghostery addons installed. TFC ran from time to time and other security tips Train gave me.
