I too am having trouble with auto updates. Same error as above and cannot
start update service tried everything on MS site to no avail. All worked
well last week after having to reformat hard disk after Norton Internet
sercurity disabled my computer. And yes they are all legit copies of the
software. I am ready to turf the damn computers out the window. Sick of
being system admin when I get home from work

Any help with the above error code would be greatly appreciated.

Did you notice that there is a second page to the thread that
Jim Riverman pointed out to the OP? (over a year ago!)

http://support.microsoft.com/newsgro...oc=NEWSGROUPLN


Please refer to the solutions from both pages in the thread so we know
what you have tried. In addition you could be getting significant symptoms
from the suggested resolutions themselves (e.g. error messages for
regsvr32 commands, for one) so it is very useful to report all your observations
when you try these resolutions. Remember, your words have to substitute
for what our eyes might notice.


Good luck
