Error code 80240016 failed to update Windows Update
Hello
I've recently noticed that I had problems installing anything new from microsoft. Last week, I tried to download internet explorer 8, but he repeated that the link was broken. Then I tried to download other things on the microsoft Web site, and I got the same message. Now, the update of windows tried to install service pack 1 and it is said, could not be updated with 80240016 error code - saying it currently installs other updates. I think the problem is that the computer can't download anything from microsoft, any help on this would be appreciated.Thank youHello Alex817,

I had a windows care, but I deleted it when it expired...
You should have uninstalled OneCare AND downloaded / run the OneCare cleanup utility and then installed AVG [1], BEFORE the expiry of your OneCare subscription.
See...
Cleaning a compromised system
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspxPersonal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!
HOW to do a clean install of Vista: section "If you want to reinstall Windows Vista by running a new installation...". "ofhttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-Vista
Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a USB stick, SD card or external drive that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

http://www.Microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspxTip: After getting the computer fully patched, download/install KB971029 manually:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971029
NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application.
