  This question should be asked in the Windows Answers Forum at http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_update.

  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910336

  You can try downloading the Windows Vista Service Pack 1 from the Download Center (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=910) and manually installing it, running the installation program as Administrator after disabling the antivirus protection; restart the system after the installation completion and re-enable the antivirus protection.

  If the Windows Update problems persist, try resetting the Windows Update components: read the Microsoft Knowledge Base article 971058.

  Bye.
