This is my first time posting to anything like this, so please forgive me if
I do something out of the ordinary or not acceptable. I have also gotten this
error KB939653; along with KB941649 Update for Windows Vista, KB905866 Update
for Windows mail Junk E-mail Filter and KB933729 Security Update for Windows
Vista. They have failed every day since 11/30/07. All with the same error
code of 80070002.
I have followed the "Help" screen suggestions, I have been back & forth on
e-mail to tech support, and no resolution. One tech had me do a "clean boot"
and disable all startup items and 3rd party services. It sure did disable
everything. When it rebooted, I had nothing but a "black" screen. Had to go
thru a re-registration process with MS to verify that I was using genuine MS
Vista. Such craziness!
Today, they had me turn off the Norton Firewall and try to download updates
- still nothing.
I looked in the msconfig, System Config, Services Tab and I found numerous
(too many to list) "stopped" services. I'm wondering now if this might have
something to do with it. I am also wondering if it might be caused by the
fact that these updates have to do with security, junk e-m, etc., that they
might not be needed since I am using Norton.
I am somewhat computer literate; have a Lenovo x64 Windows Vista Premium;
using Norton Internet Security 2008, Windows Firewall is off, as is Windows
Defender since I was getting msgs that it was butting heads with Norton.
Looking forward to receiving any assistance that may be provided. Thank you.
