windows 7 update blocked
« on: October 03, 2012, 08:40:24 PM »
The automatic updates are blocked and I also can't load them manually. The code is 8024402c, which is used for a problem with the firewall or antivirus. I don't know what to do now  :'(
Please describe in detail, I'm blond  ;)

Thanks for the friendly welcome :)
I don't know which firewall, this was what windows help said about the code... I think windows...
I use avast internet security and don't know anything about it  :(
where could I find out about what avast! is allowed to do?
Sorry, I'm just able to use my notebook but nothing else  :(

found a solution for my problem - if I change my firewall to "private zone" there is no problem.  ;)
I do not understand why, but it works...

Private Zone = Secure environment.
