It is hard to answer you since you don't give any system specifics. I've
updated a lot of WinXP systems using wireless networking with no
problems. What "offers of Windows upgrades" are "popping up" and where?
If you are talking about popups you see on line (not on the Windows
Update site), then that has nothing to do with Windows Update. Please
post back with more details so we can help you.

Martha:

Win XP Pro & Home work fine with all critical updates on my Orinoco WiFi
equipment.

Have you updated the drivers & firmware for your WiFi equipment per OEM's
web site?
