process, but am not sure how to create the next step. I am not conficdent in
case I have to reinstall the whole windows system or something! Is there any
other way or this easier and safer than my inexperienced brain is telling me?
Thanksfor helping me on this one.

Just follw it one step at a time; backup your registry before editing it
however, so if it might go wrong you can put the registry back like it was
before.

Other suggestions -
Suggestion 1 - Rename the Edb.log file (the hotfix installer references the Edb.log file
and the file may be corrupted)
1. Using Windows Explorer open the folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\CatRoot2\
2. Right-click the Edb.log file, and then rename the file "Edb.old."
3. Try Windows Update again from Internet Explorer.
Suggestion 2 - Rename the CatRoot2 folder.
1. Using Windows Explorer open the folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\
2. Right-click the CatRoot2 folder, and then rename the CatRoot2 folder "CatRoot2old".
3. Try Windows Update again from Internet Explorer.
Suggestion 3 - We'll now register some DLL files just in case they have not been
registered
Click Start, select Run and type:
regsvr32 licdll.dll
When you receive the message that the DllRegisterServer succeeded, click OK. Do the same
for the next DLL file.
regsvr32 regwizc.dll
Try Windows Update again from Internet Explorer.
Suggestion 4 - are your trusted root authority certificates up to date? Do you have a
Firewall that could be blocking Windows Update?
Check points -
To turn on automatic updating of trusted root authority certificates
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sag_cmautorootupdt.mspx?mfr=true
1. In Control Panel, open Add or Remove Programs
2. Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
3. Select the Update Root Certificates check box.
4. Click Next, and then click Finish.
Note - To open Add/Remove Windows Components, click Start, click Control Panel, click Add
or Remove Programs, and then click Add/Remove Windows Components
If you have a firewall installed, it can prevent your computer from connecting to the
Windows Update server. Make sure that TCP/IP ports 80 and 443 are open in both directions.
Make sure that your firewall is not blocking scripting functions on Web sites.

the same windows update log - well done for whoever showed us how to look at
that) I concluded that something was interfering with the registers or
preventing a register from updating propoerly.
I run Kaspersky 7 firewall, so I turned that off and turned on the Windows
firewall - an lo and behold it worked after about 10 attempts since last
month!
I did nothing else.
Snorch
Windows firewall during the update process, and it worked. I had the error
ten times or more before that.

suggested. I too had some problem opening it but I decided to try opening my
outlook and repairing it and found there was a problem with offce Source
Engine It was missing or disabled. I do not know what it is but when I
followed the directions I found it was disabled. I did not know I had one let
alone what it does or how it runs but I set it to run automatically and
started it. I then tried to download the 7 updates I have not been able to
run and low and behold it worked. Thank you for your advice you sent me to
the right place.
