Hello,

My windows update has not worked in the last few months.

When I try to run update, it says an update to update is required.

I try to install the update and then I get the following error code:

Windows could not check for updates. Error Code 80070643.

I have reviewed the error code and help and made sure that the OSE service
is running and it is . I even tried restarting it.

I still can't get the update to run.

Do you know what else it could be?

I am running Windows Vista HomePremium, AVG Anti-Virus, Comodo Firewall Pro,
and Spybot-SD. These programs have always been on the computer, even when
update worked.

I have run Microsoft Safety Scanner and it came up clean.

Thanks for your help!
