Error Code: 0x8007F007

when I started to download the updates, I was getting the failure message on
Security Update for Windows XP (KB885836) again and again with the error
code of 0x8007F007. Please tell me how to resolve this problem.

Thanks !

Error 0x8007F007 = STATUS_CAN'T_FIND_INF
Setup could not find the update.inf file needed to update your system.

Could be an indication that the cryptographic service isn't working properly
See: http://www.updatexp.com/cryptographic-service.html
and http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;822798
Method 2: Set Cryptographic Services to automatic

If the cryptographic services is okay, perhaps you may need to rename the
Catroot2 folder

see:-You cannot install some updates or programs

Method 3: Rename the Catroot2 folder
