Hi,

It had to happen sooner or later in Vista also: Updates that won't
install. Suddenly three updates KB942615, KB942624 and KB942763 can't
be installed. I have tried several times. This is the error message I
keep getting from Windows Update:

Failed 3 updates
Error(s) found:
Code 800B0100

I have been doing some poking around and found that it seems to have to
do with certificates and security, but I have not been able to find out
how to fix it. I have tried more "generic" solutions to update problems
like renaming the repository and software distribution folders. No go.
The error message changes when I do that, but the next time I'm back to
the 800B0100 one again.

Since MS offer free support for Vista users I will try that also, but I
have a feeling I'm more likely to get help in here.

Some of the updates refused to download and install for me, too,
until I turned off my anti-virus program and software firewall.
FYI, I use the ZoneAlarm Security Suite, and have to disable it for
some MS updates. HTH

I tried to disable firewall and anti-virus/spyware (both Webroot
product), but that didn't help. Thank you anyway for the suggestion.
