Oops, didn't think this was the post screen.
Anyway, if you're using Comodo Firewall and possible the AV as well, disable
them.
I found that when I disabled the firewall, I don't use Comodo AV, I use
MSSE, that the update installed perfectly.
I'm using Win 7 on a Toshiba Satellite L355-7902 3gb ram, 250gb disk.
Pretty standard so I don't have t the new BSOD that has cropped up.
Hope this helps.
