Windows Update and ISA - Revisited

UPDATED WITH THIS KB:   http://support.microsoft.com/?id=885819

I just reposted the workaround for the Windows Update and ISA Server issue

There's one more step that has been added to fix XP sp2 machines

 Ensure Internet Explorer patches are up to date and validate or set a registry value

 For pre-XPSP2 internal clients

  • Download and apply this Internet Explorer update package

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=871260

 For all internal clients

NOTE: This registry value is not read at the local machine level.  If you need this to be applied for all users on a machine, you may want to consider adding it to your domain logon scripts.

             HKEY_CURRENT_USER

\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings

            REG_DWORD: ReleaseSocketDuringAuth = 0

Specifically do THIS:

  1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
  2. Locate and then click the following key in the registry:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

  3. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD.
  4. Type ReleaseSocketDuringAuth, and then press ENTER.
  5. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
  6. Type 0, and then click OK.
