Download the updates from the Adobe Website directly, then...
For screengrabs, Print Screen is still a good method...

Yeah I ended up figuring that out myself. . . I wonder why Photoshop wasn't letting me do that. [confused]

Yes it is Pierre, but as you might remember about my post in the Adobe forums, Photoshop CS2 only limits you to make a complete screen copy and not a copy of an individual window or smaller object.
I used Snagit as an alternative, but it used too many resources and has lots of options we Photoshop users never tend to use. It's also not free.

FastStone Capture however is: http://www.faststone.org/FSCaptureDetail.htm

Note that it's only available for Windows. It uses very little resources (I have it running all the time), never crashes and is easy to use. It can capture windows, full screens, selections, even has an editor. Output can be redirected to clipboard, file, printer or internal editor. Now when I press Alt+PrintScreen I'm able to copy anything I want. It can even capture scrolling windows, like web pages, so you can make a screen copy of a complete page. Great tool, consider trying it.? ;)

Also have a look at FastStone Image Viewer; http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm

A free and very capable image viewer that reminds me a lot of the excellent ACDSee when it was still version 3.1

Thanks for the info, Gauss, maybe should this post replicated in a recommended software thread?

Excellent idea, forgot we had a section like that. Will do it soon. ;)

I'm talking about dragging straight from internet explorer (or firefox; either should work).

I got this to work today - opened PS and a new file and then dragged a picture (one of the "bridge" thread) into
the new file window.

. . . stupid Firefox.

And who said Firefox was better than explorer? [confused]
I think I'm going to go back to Netscape. That's never given me problems.

It's certainly better than Safari for the Mac. The bookmarks drop down works like the one
in Explorer.
