Windows Updates Freeze

I have Windows XP and am using SP2. Anytime that i try and get a widows up
date Explorer freezes and i press alt,ctrl,delete. When i turn off the
computer- it goes through the process of shutting down, but it hangs up and
the only way to turn off the computer is to hit the power button
