When I try to download the update of windows I get an error code every time: 802440F. Can you please help me solve this problem?
@ Evanston only!...
You see the effects of a hijackware infection! If you had used the computer longer, I might recommend trying to detect & remove infections. But it would probably take a week or two and I'm sure you have better to do with your time right now so I would recommend the following (which shouldn't take any more than two hours of uninterrupted time).
See...
Cleaning a compromised system
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700813.aspx
Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!
HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation and formatting the hard drive option" (or "reinstall it Windows 7") http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7 article
NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").
After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:
4 steps to help protect your new computer before going online
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspx
VERY IMPORTANT! -Online free trial Norton will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool again Norton before installing updates AND BEFORE installing your new application antivirus (for example, Avast5 or Microsoft Security Essentials, free).
Tip: Do not install Spybot again; It's really overkill in Win7 my humble OPINION, especially if you are installing Microsoft Security Essentials.

If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7repair/threads
If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.
Wish I had better news for you. Good luck & achieve before Thanksgiving 2010!

MattService Pack 2 offered by Windows (automatic) update yet?
Cause
This problem can occur for different reasons. However, the following reasons are the most common:- Already, you have the service pack installed and do not realize it.
- You must install another update before you install the service pack.
- You have not installed Service Pack 1 (SP1) and so you are not offered the option to install the Service Pack 2 (SP2). SP2 requires that you have installed SP1.
- Components of the system that you must have to install the service pack are not installed on your computer.
- You have a piece of hardware or software on your computer that is listed in the section "hardware and software which if present will result in Windows Update and automatic updates offers is not a service pack " article.
- You have installed a preliminary version of a service pack, and it was not properly uninstalled before that you tried to install the final version of the service pack
Service Pack 2 for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 is not available to users for which the following update is hidden:
955430 description of the Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 installation feature software update released April 28, 2009See article KB, Matt. When the system is ready for SP2 [as in you will be informed of the automatic update], suggest then you download the full SP2 package, save, temporarily disable AVG and then install SP2.
The MS KB article below has sound advice for steps, you have to take before installing a Service PackWhat you need to know before you install Service Pack 1
Microsoft offers support without charge to get SP2 installed or for the resolution of problems that arise after he installation
Start here - free support for Windows Vista service pack problems

I keep trying to download and install this update, but it does not settle and get its error code. I do the "Fix it Troubleshooting" thing by going to the Windows website, but the problem is still there. The "Troubleshooting report" says that the "default Windows Update data locations have changed" and that "one of the most updated Windows are configured incorrectly". The report tells me that the problem has been fixed, but he didn't: the update is not installed.
