Stuntgp2000 Posted December 19, 2004 Share Posted December 19, 2004 Hello everyone.I was just trying to download some SP1 updates from Windows Update Catalog and find myself unable to download them because SP2 IE with its Anti-pop-up blocked the site due to the reason that Windowsupdate downloads the updates in a pop-up windows.I know Some knew about this problem since it was confirmed by Microsoft which didn't release a fix for this problem.I decided to create a workaround for it. This reg file should be merged with your RegTweaks file.I hope you find it useful.
