After you get rid of updates and update_source OK out of the software media
manager screen and click Mandrake Update. You'll have to give it permissions
when it asks. After it's set up be sure to check all three boxes, Security,
Bug-fixes, Normal.

The update_source is what Mandrake Update will call it after you set it back
up. Just get rid of updates and stay away from stealth.net. I gave the rest
of the instructions you need above.
Any time I skip steps please yell at me. At times even my addled old brain
works faster than my fingers can type. (-;
