Hi.

I installed some windows updates last friday, after which all .net
applications failed to run (could not load mscorwks.dll errors) for some
unknown reason.

I was able to resolve those issues when running .net applications by
uninstalling all .net versions and then reinstalling .net 3.5 sp1.

I have not run into any other issues on my system except when trying to scan
for microsoft updates.

I have not seen the automatic updates system tray appear since the initial
incident.

The problem I am having is when I go to
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/
I expected it to redirect like it used to, to
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-US
but instead it goes to
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

I have ran ResetWindowsUpdate.msi, but I still get the same issue.

Any advice?

Here are the last 50 lines of %windir%\Windowsupdate.log

Thank you very much PA Bear!

I ran those reg query commands from http://www.fiddlertool.com/ua.aspx and
it reported this conspicuous registry entry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\User Agent\Post Platform
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) REG_SZ

After deleting the registry value windows update works again!

Yay!

YW & thanks for your feedback. (I suspect you may have failed to disable
all real-time system protections prior to installing IE7 and/or SP2...and/or
prior to uninstalling IE8.)
