Hi,

Lately I have been getting extremely slow downloads from Microsoft update. I
have cable modem and I normally download from Microsoft at about 550Kbs (not
kbs). Now my download speeds are about the same as dial-up. Could this have
anything to do with the new Genuine Advantage tool? All three of my systems
(running different versions of Windows) show this problem.

Fred
