For the registering files..
When I tried to stop the service, it wouldn't stop, the status would just go
to "stopping" so i tried doign it that way, didn't work. So I disabled it,
restarted the comp, then the service was stopped, so then i tried it, started
the service, didn't work, i also tried putting those things in the registry,
and succeeded but windows update still does not work.
Oh PS I have done adaware, spybot, and an up to date nod32 virus scan.
