I'm using Dial-A-Fix to repair Windows Update. It was recommended by a Microsoft technician. How long should Diial-A-Fix run before you pull the plug, so to speak. Is 15 hrs. long enough? Here's what the log says:

The last thing that the screen says is "Stopping Crytoserv..."

What's the reason nothing else is happening?

Do you happen to have Norton or Panda installed?
