Windows Update have just stopped!!! Help Required!

Hello everyone

I need urgently your help in resolving this problem!
As usual, I've started my Windows Update and I've chosen to install the
following updates for windows vista: KB958690, KB960225, KB959772, KB905866
and KB890830.
I've downloaded all these updates, Windows has automatically created a
restore point and the instalation started; I've noticed that Windows Update
was workinkg more slownly than usual but when it started to install the
KB890830 (remove malware tool) it suddenly stopped. The process has stopped
on 66% and still is stopped since more than one hour. All the other updates
are installed. All of them have not more than 16, 17 MB! This is not normal.
The PC still works normally, except the Windows Update. I don't have any
error message, I choose to stop the Instalation Process and I close the
Windows Update window, but the Windows Update symbol is still activated on my
desktop bar.
I know that this may sound ridiculous for some of you but I'm afraid to
reeboot the PC with Windows Update active and to create problems in my OS.

Can you please help me out? I've noticed lots of people are having the same
problems.

Thank you

Regards

You do not say how you have tried to install these?
Have you tried them one at a time - in any case, I always do the KB890830 on
its own, straight to the desktop.

Hi

I go to Start Menu and I choose "Windows Update". After it stops looking for
updates for my computer, I've chosen the ones I mentioned in my post.

An question: is it normal to have the Windows Update symbol on my desktop
bar after I've chosen to stop the instalattion?
How can I be sure that Windows Update has really stopped so I can safelly
restart my computer?

Thanks in advance

Do you mean the little yellow shield in the task bar at the bottom
right??????
Have you tried saving to disc after DL each KB from MS DL Center and then
installing, off-line with all security software disabled?
There is more than one way sometimes to skin the MS cat.
