  Hi trski,

  I recommend you to check for possible malware program.

  1 restart the computer using safe mode with networking. If you have a Type of Internet connection wireless, have a wired internet connection. To restart in Mode safe mode with networking:
  a. press the restart.
  (b) at the moment you press the restart button, keep tapping F8 until that Advanced Boot Options appears.
  c. Select Mode safe mode with networking
  2. open the Web browser to explore and go to http://safety.live.com.
  3 scan the OneCare Safety Scanner full Service.
  4. take note of the items that are detected, but cannot be deleted, as appropriate. Get back to me with the names of the infections that cannot be removed, if necessary.
  5. after removing the infection (if any), start in Normal Mode by restarting just the normal computer like you do it.

  Run Windows Update again, and get back to us with your findings.

  You can access Kaspersky or Norton site? If this isn't the case, then you definitely a virus blocking area.

  Don't use USB drives because the virus will try to put a back to itself on your storage device USB that will infect the machines in the future or infect your newly developed system in shape again.

  In the worst cases, or for beginners full disk HARD formatting & at the same time the formatting of USB storage are more protective defense.

• Cannot access the Microsoft Update Site

  I get the following error message when you try to access the update site:

  Microsoft Update could not be installed on your computer
  

  Make sure that you log on as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group, and then try again.

  More troubleshooting options

  • If your computer is connected to a network and the problem persists, contact your system administrator to see if your Microsoft Update settings are managed by using Group Policy.
  • If your computer is not connected to a network, or if your system administrator has not disabled Microsoft Update, check if the Windows Update service is disabled or stopped. For information about how to start a service, search help and Support on your computer.

  Note: If you encounter problems with the installation of Microsoft Update, you can continue to get updates for your computer by going to Windows Update in control Panel.

  [Error number: 0x800A01AE]

  I AM logged on as administrator (it's actually the only account on the system other than the guest account: I have renamed the main administrator account and use it as my account {I know this isn't the best practice, but I always did like it and it makes things easier being the administrator, especially since I changed the name for security reasons}).  I have a small home network wireless, but have no defined group policy (no server - just-to-peer).  The Windows Update Service is launched and running (but I stopped and restarted it just to be safe).

  I don't quite know what to do next.  I would like to be able to access this site for updates that cancelled or failed during the update process automatic (and who seem not to be re - that appear as options when I check the updates).

  Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated...

  BTW, I use a Dell Inspiron E1705 with 32-bit Windows Vista Business SP2.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You try to go actually on here Windows Updates site?

  http://www.update.Microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx?ln=en-us

  This site does not work for Vista. You must use the Windows built-in to Vista updates or download them
  sites I posted for you last time.

  Absolutely do not use the default Administrator account. Just make a new Admin account to
  use and leave the other to test and difficulty. In fact, make an Admin NOW account to use to test and fix
  According to the needs. If your sole administrator corrupts you will have a big headache.

• Anyone know if there is a problem with the "Windows Update" site? Since May 11, 2010...

  Anyone know if there is a problem with the "Windows Update" site? As of May 11, 2010 I could not access it for 2 days now.  I get an error report indicating that he has a "problem with the site '... Not sure if it's my computer or the site itself. I just need to check updates and download them. I would be grateful for any feedback...  Thank you!
  ~ Jenifer

  It is without a doubt.  There were a few patches published today, and I was able to update all my machines successfully.  This looks more like a virus problem.  Have you run a virus scan recently?  Many times, if you are infected the virus will prevent you to access Windows Update.

  You can also use Microsoft Fix It to reset the Windows Update components: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.  This could also be your problem.

  Let me know how it goes,

  Download a FREE program called Revo Uninstaller

  http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html>. It allows to uninstall any program completely, including the files of monitoring programs. works very well, that you should have no problem more reinstall after uninstall this program.

  Just don't allow the computer to restart if the part of Revo Uninstaller asks you if you want to restart now or later. Select afterwards and let Revo finish an orphan looking for registry entries. Reboot after Revo ends.

  TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), readhttp://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.
