Did you upgrade to Win7 or is it a brand-new computer?



What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your

subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?

What third-party firewall (if any)?



Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the

computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought

it)?



Have you tried...?



How do I reset Windows Update components?:

I am receiving the same error message 8000FFFF on Vista Home Premium version

of Windows, which is prohibiting windows updates to occur. I have 32 bit

operating system, 2.0 GHZ, Intel.



I thoroughly frustrated. I have contacted McAffe and have tried to download

the suggested updates on the website.



What do you recommend?
