What have you tried?


Windows Update Troubleshooter
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/troubleshoot/
When you're using the Windows Update Web site you receive a dialog box that states:
"Checking for the latest version of the Windows Update software...Depending on your
connection speed, this might take a minute. To ensure that you're able to view
Windows Update when this verification is complete, select Yes in any "Security
Warning" dialog boxes that appear." The update process freezes at this point.

This may be caused by a third-party firewall product called Zone Alarm. Try disabling
this program and opening the Windows Update site again. Be sure to enable your
firewall again when you are done.

When searching for available updates on the Windows Update site, you see the
0x8007043B error
This error may occur if the WUAUSERV and BITS services are not configured properly in
the registry.
http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...cleid=19&ln=en



Try registering the following:

Click Start, select Run and type (pressing enter after each one and wait for the
success message):

net.exe stop wuauserv
Press Ok

Repeat for the following:
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
regsvr32 atl.dll

net.exe start wuauserv

Try this..it worked for me.

1. The relevant system files were unexpectedly unregistered from the system.
2. Two related registry branches are missing or corrupted.


NOTE: After finishing each suggestion, go to the Microsoft Windows Update
site and check the result there.

Suggestion 1. Restore two registry branches.
=================================
The relevant registry branches are as follows:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\wuauserv
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\R oot\LEGACY_WUAUSERV

Please refer to the following steps to restore them:

1. Click Start->Run, type: Inf and press Enter.
2. Locate the file "au.inf" (without quotations) in the opened folder (you
may type au to locate this file), right click on the file and choose
"Install".

3. When you are prompted to select the installation source, click browse,
and navigate to the location:

C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

If this folder is not available in the system, please choose the folder
C:\Windows\System32 instead.

Suggestion 2. Re-register the relevant system files
========================================
1. Click Start, Run, type: notepad C:\register.bat and press Enter. Choose
Yes when you are prompted.
2. Copy the following commands and then paste them into the opened Notepad
window.

exit

3. After you paste the above commands, please close the Notepad window.
Choose Yes when you are prompted to save the file.
4. Click Start, Run, type: C:\register.bat and press Enter to run the
commands you have pasted.

However, if the behavior persists, I'd like to check the following points on
your side:

1. Is the computer currently residing in a company network (LAN) or domain
environment?
2. Is the computer connected to the Internet via another computer, router or
proxy?
