Cannot Install Window Updates

I am having a problem with installing my updates they start to install then a
error is generated. I ran a Error Log and this is the information: The
Cryptographic Services service terminated with the following error: %1 is not
a valid Win32 appilications.

Windows version ?

> Not a valid win32 application

There was a problem with the downloaded file and it may be corrupted...
try downloading an update manually with the installed antivirus
***temporarily disabled***.
Save the update, close the browser and any other open programs
Now install the update
Reenable the AV after the update installs

IF the update installs correctly then it's the Antivirus program that is
corrupting the downloads
IF not, then post the last 50 or so lines of the WindowsUpdate.log
located in the WINDOWS directory [folder]

I am running Windows XP Home Edition. I tried to install a window update and
this time a different Error came up Set-up could not virify the integrity
of file Update inf. Make sure Cryptographic service is running. I do I check
that and how to I turn it on if it is off
