Error message after you install a Windows Internet Explorer 7 update from 
Windows Update or from Microsoft Update: "Webpage cannot be
displayed":
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942818

If tweaking your third-party firewall's settings don't help, try the 
following:

1. Disable your anti-virus application, any real-time protection provided by 
an anti-spyware application (except for Windows Defender; includes Spybot 
Tea Timer, SpySweeper Guards, AVG AS guard.exe, etc.), disable any 
third-party firewall AND enable the Windows Firewall.

NB: You're "working without a net" now: Don't to ANYTHING else online
(e.g., 
browsing; reading email; chatting) except #4 below until your anti-virus 
application has been re-enabled!  If you're running ZA Free firewall, you 
may need to uninstall it instead of disabling it.

2. Uninstall "Security Update for Windows Internet Explorer 7
(KB944533)" 
via Add/Remove Programs (make sure Show Updates box is checked at top right) 
and reboot.

3. Re-do #1 above.

4. Run Windows Update and install any Critical Updates offered.  If "Root 
Certificates" update is listed in the Optional Updates category, you might

install it, too, to take full advantage of IE7's additional security.

5. Reboot > Make sure everything in #1 above is enabled again and, if 
applicable, disable the Windows Firewall and enable your third-party 
firewall.
