    Hi Jeff,

    Sorry for the continued difficulty. Could I have you try renaming the %allusersprofile%\Sophos\Update Manager\Update Manager\Warehouse directory and try to update again? It's a bit of a heavy handed "fix" that I typically don't resort to, but it may be quicker than trying to get to the bottom of whatever is going on here.
