Hi William,.
First try the following article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.
If this does not work, try this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923100.
While I'm not quite certain that the first will succeed, the second is a common and often recommended solution that has helped a lot with this error code.
I hope this helps.

Update not installed: unknown error found code 80073717C
My computer tried to install the, "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows Vista (KB2183461) ' without success for 2 weeks; whenever the update fails. I spent hours going through your blogs trying to solve this problem - I downloaded Microsoft Fix - it, manually entered code, added checking my firewall, etc. ; all to nothing does not. Most of the blogs I found were earlier - 2009 or more; are there more recent solutions out there for a problem of 2010?
Where to start?
If I didn't realize you had McAfee VirusScan ENTERPRISE installed, I would not have you run the McAfee removal tool as it is not a "consumer product". Sorry about that.
Given the fact that NONE of the updates (i.e. KB2183461 & specific updates to Vista, released 14) install, I would say that you aredefinitely see the effects of a hijackware infection. Yes as well as the other Options you are pursuing (e.g., open a free support incident; running a thorough for hijackware check), I'll give you a recommended option Part C now:
