Windows update won't load

Can't seem to get windows update to load, every time I attempt windows hangs. If I go to Microsoft.com and try knowledge base articles nothing loads there either. Does anyone know if it with ms or Ie in Vista..

No, origannly before sp1 I had auto update set to down load updates at 3am so I never worried about it. Then yesterday I tried to see if there were any optional updates that I might need.That is when I notice the problem, and I had sp1 installed for at least a week now..
