I have just had to restore my computer to factory settings. I am trying to download IE8 but keep getting an error message saying updates missing, yet I have spent the last 3 hours or more loading updates and the program says there are no more updates available.

Help please.

You can keep trying for ever - give up and load Firefox!
as per Androcles - download free here; its much faster than IE8 & will correct your settings

In case you need more convincing... download Firefox.
honest firefox will be so much more better
Dont forget about Opera! Iknow its not quite as good as firefox,but I love the way you can 'flick't he pages with your mouse instead of having to press back.
Even though,bignanny still has a problem,and it took me some convincing to change browser,it can be a big step.
All I can say is download and install any updates available.Restart computer(to activate some downloads)sometimes the computer initializes these downloads then they actually are recognized by the computer and work!
I am a computer dumbo so that is the only help I can give.Hope it does help

Thanks everyone. Will try Firefox and let you know. It is ok with vista isn't it?
Yes it's fine with vista, and I agree it's better and faster than IE.
