WindowsUpdate

Installing Studio and stuff on my new desktop (laptop is almost officially dead) I was having a problem with Microsoft Update...

The website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. The options provided below might help you solve the problem.

The error code is 0x8007000B. Looking in the WindowsUpdate.log shows:

WARNING: DownloadFileInternal failed for http://download.windowsupdate.com/v8/windowsupdate/b/selfupdate/WSUS3/x86/Other/wsus3setup.cab: error 0x8007000b

So I tried to download that file in ie and get:

Access to http://download.windowsupdate.com/v8/windowsupdate/b/selfupdate/WSUS3/x86/Other/wsus3setup.cab has been blocked by WebMarshal

Ah ha!

(P.S. I don't remember the blogger editor being this bad... the format of this post is terrible right now.)

[Edit] Formatting maybe fixed...

Lambda expressions

I just used a lambda expression for the first time. They are neat!

I was going to write about some things that I am going to do this year... but I think that kind of thing might be part of the problem... Gonna neva duzzit. So I'm not gonna right nuffink.

I will say though that I have changed something. As in already, it is done. Not going to be done, not only started, but done. I changed the template. They all pretty much suck though so I am going to... no wait. Scratch that. Let's leave it at they suck.

I realise that I have now screwed up the code snippet thingy but too bad. I just wanted a change. What do I need to look for in a template?

  • Quote callouts must look nice
  • Code samples
  • Picture and Video posts must look nice
  • Simple, block oriented
  • Should use my own images not generic ones
