I am running Vista Ultimate SP2 running 32bit version. I have nothing loaded
except the OS, Office 2007, and system software and itunes.

I seem to be stuck with 3 security patches getting constant error saying it
can not update.

What is the solution? I been reading through a ot of posts, my Vista does
not have an upgrade option. I just installed this version of Ultimate Vsita
and got iut patched all the way to SP2 before this error message started.

It is Mar 1st 2010. I would assume this bug fix has been identified by now.

*** Be wary of installing NON-essential software *** that will then have
to be updated when a vulnerability is discovered in them.

Ex: Windows Desktop Search; Silverlight; etc.

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?
