Offline Update

Home-made Service Pack

Error:Download Failure 07 February 2008 10:36

Hello all,
I have previously downloaded and produced an ISO image of updates for
XP.

Today I attempted to check if there may be any new updates and ran
the offline updater. When I selected START in the GUI, the Wget
window opened.

All attempts to access download.microsoft.com falied.

download.microsoft.com 8.12.217.124:80 ..failed: connection refused
download.microsoft.com 8.12.217.126:80 ..failed: connection refused
download.microsoft.com 209.84.2.126:80 ..failed: connection refused

Error:Download Failure

Can anybody offer any suggestions what i've done wrong with my setup?

Regards,
