Windows Update Error 80070424 with Vista 64 bit

I have a feeling most people already know what error I'm talking about.
Windows won't update, simply as that. I've missed about half a year of
updates to this... and I can't even install Norton Antivirus until I can get
this thing updated.

Once again, my system is Vista 64 bit. If you give me a XP-only solution, I
will bite you. Hard.
