As reported in this thread: Cumulative Update KB3120677 Nov. 24th.

I can never get the Microsoft Update Catalog downloads to work

It just sits there with a blue IE window with the Microsoft Update Catalog logo top left (see attached) which is after I clicked the link for Cumulative Update KB3120677 ...

Hi there. I see you're in IE11. Did it not ask you to install the add-on?

Not that I'm aware of, what is it called?

[Edit] Found it, it was disabled. Removed and all OK, many thanks.

YW, Nigel. Happy updating.

You need the MUC ActiveX Control

So now how do you avoid this??..... (Tried all common sense things.)

Hi there. Try turning off your Popup Blocker. The only good info I could find was this: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/w...ec9f085?page=2

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply. But as said, tried *all* common sense things under the sun. Seems to be a remote issue that eventually passes, but man does it seem to take a long time.

Ok. Just being sure. LOL! "System malfunction" along with what your avatar states can be quite frustrating at times!
