Thanks for your attempt to help. But I have already done this to no help at
all.
I did try registering the dll and retried but no help.
And I have not repaired my installation.

Although the windows update site responds with no error and does not log any
info in the history log, i found some error messages in the log files in the
winows directory.

These read:

2008-09-15 18:11:31:039 808 c30 Agent *************

OK it is difficult to see in a small space but the point is :
WARNING: GetUserTokenFromSessionId failed with error 800704dd for session 0
2008-09-15 18:14:28:034 808 c30 Agent * WARNING: Exit code = 0x80240020

So looked in here with these error codes and found a suggestion for some
registry info that might be missing!
indeed they were missing the whole key senslogn under
HK_LM\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon\notify
I cannot point you to the article I found but if someone needs it I can look
for it again.

So I followed those steps.
now the update process seems to take a little bit more time but still fails!.

now these errors appear:
GetUserTokenFromSessionId failed with error 800704dd for session 0
2008-09-16 10:35:52:806 804 990 Agent * WARNING: Exit code = 0x80240020

and

any more suggestions?

From: AGonos on
Thank you TaurArian
This was the post I had found and tried to use to resolve the issue as I was
describing earlier.
However that alone did not help.
I am glad to say that now i have resolved the issue.
what I did was: /wuforce install the windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe
then restart and .. stil not working.
Then I exported the HK_LM\software\microsoft\windows
nt\currentversion\winlogon\notify\SensLogn
from my desktop - work PC and imported it into my laptop.

This at first look at least did not seem any different to the values I had
entered manualy following the article you suggested.

then I restarted and before I attempted to MSUPDATE I deleted
softwaredistribution once more (I have done this before ). (Implied I
shutdown "Automatic Updates" service and restarted it )

Then I went into the Windows Update Site and this time It was reset.
It asked that I accept the License or whatever that was, checked for
software... and Finally it worked. It installed one update!.

So thank you though propably someone should add deleting the
softwarediostribution folder as well as adding the registry keys. It seems
that the contents were corrupt in a strange way!



then
