I cant get Windows Update to work.

Everytime to try to start windows update, the whole screen goes blank for
about 4-5 minutes and then i get an error, Error number: 0x801901F8

Tried a search but no hits...grrr.

Anyone know whats wrong?

Are you using Norton Anti Virus v9.05.15?
If you are there is an option to enable/disable Script Blocking. Disable it.
Then perform your update.

Hope it help. I had this same problem until I was looking into another
problem.

Apparently the last time this question was answered an insufficient number
