Try this solution at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144

Reboot

Now try to install your updates.


Also a free prog. called "dial-a-fix", will sort out your download prob.and
some
others if you need,.....

Go ahead and download Dial-a-fix.

http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix

Reboot into safe mºde (F-8)

Click the green checkmark and click Go.

After it has finished,

Reboot

Can you go to Windows Update, select Express (Get high-priority updates),
and apply all offered updates

Let us know what happens.
