Same problem... However I resolved it by:
Clearing cookies, cache (including offline content) files and history from
Internet Explorer.
Stopped the Automatic Update service.
Renamed C:\windows\SoftwareDistribution directory to SoftwareDistribution_OLD
Started the Automatic Update service. Service will rebuild the
c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution directory and files.
Ran WindowsUpdate again, and now it found my 12 missing updates. Why the
\SoftwareDistribution datastore has been corrupted in the first place, God
only knows...
Hope it helps you
Cheers,
Joern
