But before trying this, what exactly does this flush.bat do or modify with my system? |

| | It will reset IE to your "default" Internet connection and restore Microsoft's original Hosts file. Sometimes a bad DNS entry will be cached and you will need to flush the DNS cache to get rid of it. |

| | Hello Gerald, If the great advice from Jacee doesn't help, then you might also see if using only OPTION TWO in the tutorial below to reset Windows Update may help afterwards. Windows Update - Reset Hope this helps, Shawn |

| | Also, consider an uninstall/reinstall of MSE. And a scan by Malwarebytes to insure a virus did not corrupt MSE. |
