Hello Reddemon,
I would like for you to try the following steps and do a manual download. :-)
Step 1: WGA Manual ActiveX Installation
Click the Start button, then Click Run
Type: iexplore http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=39204 then Click OK
You will be prompted to download “LegitCheckControl.cab”
Choose Open
Once this completes, a window will open showing two files. “LegitCheckControl.dll” and “LegitCheckControl.inf” Leave this window open for now.
Click the Start button, then Click Run
Type: system32, then Click OK
(If you are running Windows XP, you may need to click Show Files to allow access to this system directory.)
Drag the “LegitCheckControl.dll” file from the window that was open into the “system32” directory folder. If you are prompted to overwrite a file, choose Yes, to overwrite any existing file. (If you are running Vista, you may be prompted to provide administrator permission to complete the action. If so, Press Continue, and allow it.)
Click the Start button, then Click Run
Type “regsvr32 LegitCheckControl.dll”, and then click ‘OK’.
You should see a dialog saying “DllRegisterServer in LegitCheckControl.dll succeeded.”
After you finish the above steps please restart the computer and try to validate Vista. Here is the link:

Thank you Reddemon,
