Vista Windows Update - the page failed to load - After Defender Update

    Windows update shows "the page failed to load" on both my laptop
    running Home Premium and desktop running Ultimate yesterday after
    being prompted that Defender update was available. The last update
    both machines did was a Defender update earlier that day or the
    previous day. Restoring from a backup previous to the first update
    solves the problem. Is the Defender update causing this? Anyone
    else?

    RE: Vista Windows Update - the page failed to load - After Defender Up

    Ya, I am having same issue, but had to do a full reinstall of Vista Home on
    my laptop to get it to work, Desktop is Running Vista Business and a
    re-install is not possible. Office 2003 has been going berzerk since then
    too. Any help to fix would be greatly appreciated.

    Why? What was wrong? What made you think a reinstallation was
    necessary?

    Why not?
