I have automatically update my windows but when I try to manually update it I get error message Error number: 0x8024502D. I followed the links for this through Microsoft for download problems and it says it could be: A misconfigured Proxy/Firewall can cause this problem. Double-check the Proxy/Firewall settings. Add the following urls to the exception list within your Firewall/Proxy: http://*.update.microsoft.com https://*.update.microsoft.com http://download.windowsupdate.com For help configuring Proxy/Firewall refer to documentation or contact the manufacturer. 1. What documentation?? 2. How do I know if I only have one firewall security or another. 3. Where is the settings Microsoft refers to? Thank you for any assistance. -- Wendy N
