Update error 80070005 failed when trying to install updates via windows update.

I have windows vista and trying to get the updates via windows update, it will fail, and then sometimes it will tell me that I have to restart my computer and then updates install, will fail and come back, don't know if that is related.

Basically, I am trying to install windows live messenger, but I need a new service pack, and not a windows platform update, which will be installed.
I don't know what I'm doing in the slightest, so help would be appreciated.
See you soon.
