Error code 80072EFD with Vista updates
Unfortunately, I tried to use these sites but the firewall on my Vista family premium will only allow the programs well and NOT websites. I have 4 important updates that need to download so I can install them. I get this error message all the time and sometimes they get in through slowly but then they cannot install and the firewall prevents them. What to do?
Help!

Help with error code 80073712 with windows update...
I have problems with fixing error code: code 80073712 in my windows update program... I tried to do the checksur.exe... and after having told me he found 10 errors... He only corrected a mistake and said its missing files to correct the other 9 errors it finds... I have over 3000 photos on the computer more than a ton of documents that was for my personal use and then my church congregation as well. The music I like to keep it on the hard drive and really don't want to lose to re - install windows to fix backup... would only store my documents and photos... as I tried to record my songs on a DVD that says that he accepts the mp3 files, but it didn't work... so I lost 3 DVDs, it took to keep the music... Are there other ways to solve this problem without having to save and not lose the files... I really need to keep most of them away to printing purposes and everyday... Thanks a lot for all the help that can be given.
I already tried the methods of fixing this error code 2... None of them helped or solved the problem... y at - it something else I can do...
I was not able to install updates since November 13, 2009... updates how am I missing that will affect the security of my operating system and is updated just a better option...

You are missing a lot of critical security updates (especially if the updates published on 10 Nov 09 never installed).
You don't want to switch to Win7 with the computer in its current state (nor would you be able to do, I think).
Vista SP1 or SP2 installed?
What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription? What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications? What third-party firewall (if applicable)?
A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

Error code 646 with Office updates
code 646 error when you perform windows for vista was last updated to solve a security problem with office 2003 and set the junk e-mail filter. Another diagnosis did not work and I am never asked to accept the terms. have tried several times. Sometimes my computer talk to me in Chinese because I often use in China, but do not know if this has something to do with it. Have known a lot of probs with recent outlook and very slow responses with other programs may if an intruder is already inside.

To get updates Office installed when you receive the error 646, usually download and install them manually will work. Look at your history of update and get the KB # updates failed. Then, go to the Microsoft Download Center, search the KB # and then you download the file to your PC. Then, simply double-click the file to run it.If it is possible to have any type of infection so I suggest that you take a look at these links:

I tried all the suggestions here:
I have reset the components windows update manually from the link:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058
I tried to install the updates manually after putting the computer in a clean boot.
I tried to download and install the updates manually, but these two updates must be installed through Microsoft update and Microsoft update gives me error 646.
I am slot as Vista Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 2.
New or different suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Tony.
Microsoft support advised me to temporarily disable (UAC) user account control.
Which has worked and updates installed normally.
