Problems with Windows Updates

[aunderwo]

Hi All,

When using widows xp in Parallels, I can surf the internet without problems but when trying to apply windows update get the following problem (see below). Has anybody else seen this problem and know of a work around. It appears to be a problem with contacting the microsoft update websites. I have added these as trusted sites as microsoft suggests but still no joy.

Thanks in advance,

Anthony
