have a problem when I use windows automatic update. Use a I have a Vista 64 bit operating system I also have a 32 bit and a 64 bit browser explorer 8. The problem is that when I get an update using windows automatic update sometimes it will not install the update. That is where the problem begins. You see that for some reason th it wants to install the 32 bit update which vista will sometimes install and other times will not install. I guess that the server on the other hand looks at the web browser that his online which is 32 bit not 64 bit. But the problem I have if I use the 64 bit browser I come across a webpage that the Adobe flush player is on with the 64 bit browser it creates an error also. When I get an update from windows automatic update and go two check the update that did not install and go to support it usually shows up that it is a 32 bit update not 64 bit update. So what I have to do is look at the 32 bit webpage and look for the 64 bit webpage update. Sometimes it will install with no problem and other times it will not install was a big problem. Once it has this error in at it takes looking around to find out how to get the update to install. Because sometimes my computer will accept a 32 bit update that I did not know about. The more of these errors you'd get the harder it becomes to get it solved. I think that if you could get the server on the other end to look pass 32 bit browser and look at the 64 bit operating system so that it can load the 64 bit update. I look at windows update but I could not see any way of changing the settings. But maybe if you look at it it could be fixed or maybe I just think that this is a problem.
