You need to stop being lazy and at least look for a little help for yourself instead of us searching for all your help.

I found the error # in the HELP AND SUPPORT part of Windows Update.

This is what MS said about this:

This behavior indicates that the scan process encountered an error it could not recover from. You may be able to determine the specific error by looking in the Windows Update.log file, located in the Windows folder on Windows XP, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition. The folder is located in the Winnt folder on Windows 2000.

Temporarily disabling antivirus and firewall programs while you use Windows Update may solve this problem. Be sure to enable them again when you complete the update process.

You might also be able to resolve this issue by deleting all of the content in Program Files&#092;Windowsupdate and Program Files&#092;Windowsupdate&#092;V4 except for the iuhist.xml file located in Program Files&#092;Windowsupdate&#092;V4.
