RE: connecting to msn/hotmail/win update trouble
this does not have to be a problem with a router necessarily. it is odd that windows update and other microsoft related internet connections are blocked.

i doubt that it is the problem.



try the following.
if you are using a proxy server, make sure that the proxy server is set to allow anonymous connections to the internet. and enable the Use HTTP 1.1 through Proxy Connections setting

1. Start Internet Explorer.
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. Click the Advanced tab, and then select the Use HTTP 1.1 through proxy connections check box.
4. Click OK.

IF THIS does not help than try this:

in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\ folder you should check if the host file name are correct.

start Notepad, drag-and-drop operation the hosts file (or Hosts.sam file) into the open notepad document

if there is a host (or Hosts.sam) file on your system that has an entry for the "Windows Update" site, delete the entry. see if this helps.
