Hello,
I cannot get any updates from windows. I also cannot get on any windows.com pages / I get page cannot be displayed message. I've tried also downloading anti-virus /spyware programs and cannot get them to load because they cannot contact the server. I've checked my firewall settings and nothing is being blocked. Something is keeping me from downloading stuff and cannot figure it out. If anyone could help, it would be appreciated.
Thank You

Thank you for your help, I went to the Windows validate website and was unable to validate it there because the security pop-up bar that loads the Active-X did not appear at the top of the screen. I did look in the publishers area in internet options and under the un-trusted plublishers it says Microsoft-FRAUDULENT-Not Microsoft, While i was away on an EXTENDED-VACATION :), My wife had somebody clean out the computer cause it was not working properly, She said he re-installed windows, Well i reckon that is the problem, Is there anything i can do about this without having to buy a whole new copy of windows, Any suggestions ? Thank you for your time and help, Happy New Year,
Mike
