Vista Update says "up-to-date" but it's not

After running windows update in vista home premium 32 bit, it says (since
july 13th) windows is up-to-date, but really it's not.

I am able to download and install the new patches manually, and in the
update history it says next to the update that the update was installed
succesfully, but why did windows update not find these updates through the
windows update program?

Doesn't matter if I disable the firewall, proxy, and security software, the
update program still says that windows is up to date, when it really is not.

I have everything checked, automatic update, recommended updates, use
microsoft update service, etc.

I can't find any solution except check carefully that your System Clock is
accurate. Other than that I can suggest Microsoft Support which is free
for any Update problems.

Someone said that if updates are available they do not always directly show
up in automatic update. He mentioned the updastes I had installed too. Could
that be it?
