(You can check if this is a problem caused by the personal filter settings or caused by the ISP by accessing this link http://update.microsoft.com/test, if it appears 404, it's not a vendor's block).

A CAPTCHA image does not come back from the test

Description: There are various sites that, in order to ensure that the answer is not generated by a computer, they use a captcha image that includes letters or numbers that appear distorted on the screen and the user has to identify them and type them.
