The Office Update site is currently experiencing some technical difficulties
and is unable to check for updates.

Click the Try Again link below to try loading the site again (do not use the
Refresh button on your browser to reload the site).

If problems persist, please contact Microsoft Support for assistance. You
can also search for Office updates in the Download Catalog.

I began getting this message yesterday. Is there a problem on the site or
is it my computer?
