Couple of questions...

1) Where are you downloading from?
2) What type of connection do you have, (Broadband, Dialup, Mobile)?
3) How large of a file does it take to have a server reset, eg: Can you dl a 40MB and not a 45MB?
4) Who is the "they" who were to have fixed this??

How are you doing the update? Through Start - Programs - Windows Update or through Automatic updates?

Have you tried just doing one update at a time if there are more than one available?

Please answer all questions so that proper trouble shooting may be attempted.
