Important updates

I have Vista and keep the notification can test 10 important updates are available.  I try to install, it shows that they are installed and prompts me to restart.  However, when I restart I have the desktop shows "configuration of updates, the first step of three", he starts, gets to halfway through step 2, then stops and displays "put to date not set up correctly, reconfiguration" and updates are never installed.  This has happened several times in recent weeks, which also causes a delay when I'm signing.  Help!    Updates are Cumulative Update for Internet Explorer 8 KB978207, updated on day of platform 971644, update 972270, Internet exp. 8 and compatibility view list 978506, mail spam filter905866, 970430, 971737, 973687, 973917 and 976098 updates.  Thank you very much, I hope I can get this resolved.

Are you running Vista SP1 or SP2?

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 the computer (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

  • Vista SP2 32-bit, Windows Update continues to install KB979683 and then re-list as a new "important update available"

    Automatic updates of Windows installs KB979683, and then in the next update checking, it is listed under "important update available". He repeated every day for three weeks.

    Under 'View Update History', he shows again and again KB979683 installation successfully.

    Under 'updates installed, he said, "no update is installed on this computer". So I can't download it manually on my desktop, uninstall the update, restart in safe mode and reinstall manually. Also, when I tried to install manually in safe mode without deleting the file, I received the error 0X8007043c.

    I tried stopping the windows update service, and then delete all files in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution > DataSstore and C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution > download, then by restarting the service, but it did not help.

    I've updated and run Malwarbytes Anti-Malware 1.46 and AVG 9.0.829, but found no threat.

    I use windows, as well as automatic daily scans with AVG firewall (manual scans with Malwarebytes: daily).

    I don't know if it's important, but I'm under IE8, version 8.0.6001.18882, 256 bit zero versions updates. I have seen a recent update was available for IE8 (KB982381) but when you try to run manually, he said that the update does not apply to my system.

    Help, please!

    NB: If you had no installed anti-virus application or subscription has expired * when the machine was first infected * and/or your subscription has expired since and/or the machine is not kept fully corrected in Windows Update, don't waste your time with any of the following: Format & reinstall Windows.  A repair install won't help!
