Hello,
I recently experienced a computer meltdown, and had to reinstall my OS, as
well as my STATA program. When I went onto update STATA from Version 8.0
(which is on my installation CD) to the current 8.2 (using "update query
-->update all"), the download continues to hang at the following spot:

This problem seems to come up a lot - the very first version of Stata 8 has
trouble updating to the latest version. So, follow the directions for
updating as if Stata doesn't have access to the Internet. Then hopefully,
subsequent updates will go fine. See

Make sure you update both the ados and the executable.
Thank you very much for the information. My system is now back up and fully
opperational!!
