Error message 8000FFFF

Why do I get the error message 8000FFFF when I try to install the update?

Have a look at:

Good Morning TaurArian,
I did what it stated in the link you sent me.
I got to the componet key, clicked on it and I might have missed something
because I did not see:
PendingXmldentifier
NextQueueEntryIndex
AdvancedInstallersNeedResolving
Am I suppose to hit some other key?

Thanks,
Ron

Hi Ron, then that's not the problem for you.
Move onto the next suggestions on the page-
The error can also occur if etc -

a.. The relevant Windows Update services stop working.
b.. The temporary folder of Windows Update has been corrupted.
c.. Windows Update Agent does not work.
d.. A Third party program is affecting the WU Service (such as anti-spyware programs,
Internet/web accelerators, Firewall/Anti-Virus programs) or the downloaded file/update is
corrupt.
etc

Thank You TaurArian!

All other updates are downloaded with no problem.
I have Vista Home Preium, Trend Security Suite and High Speed internet. It
is from Time Warner Cable at 7MB. It also has security feature with it.
I am stumped why only this update won't download but any others will with no
problem.
Here in Wisconsin, USA we have been getting snow almost every 2nd or 3rd day.
Wish I were in Australia now.

Ron

Is there anything I can do to correct this problem?
