Hi, I'm using windows XP home edition and update hasn't found any updates
for quite a while now, I think there must be something wrong with it. Is
there anything I can try to fix it?
TIA.

I posted the same question a few days ago in microsoft.public.windowsupdate group. I'm in the same situation as yourself and would appreciate confirmation that there haven't been any updates issued since. BTW the update program seems to run perfectly, getting to 100%, and there aren't any errors in the log file. I've even tried the https method as well to no avail.

I've read a few posts suggesting to make sure the default language, time and
date are all set correctly but this still doesn't make any difference for
me. I also get no errors in the log file.

It's still the same. Has anyone else got any suggestions?

Same here. Have any updates been issued this month though - no one has
answered that question yet.

I've just uninstalled one of the last updates I got and tried again, now it
tells me that the update I uninstalled is available for download (but
nothing else is available). Maybe it is could just be that there've been no
updates. I wish someone could confirm this though.
