I've tried the windowsupdate reset tool, no joy and various other ms fixit's that don't fix anything.

also the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update for .NET versions 2.0 through 3.5 (KB951847) x86 is failing as well.
this is all happening on a brand new install of windows xo which is activated, has sp3 and ie8, what do I need to do to untangle this mess?
 
below is a link to my skydrive, download from the public folder 1, 2, 3, and 4, save to desktop, and run in order, this will clear .net framework and then reinstall up to 3.5, note for 2, you will have to be connected to the internet for the download which is lengthy and will fluctuate, when down you will be advised to disconnect from the internet.

then you can download and install .net 4 if you desire, but it is not necessary unless a program you use calls for this.

your windows updates is working for all other updates??
 
I have exactly the same problem, with my .Net Framework updates failing to update. Now, Windows Update is not working at all on both our XP computers. It just sits there with the green bar moving endlessly across the screen. Windows Update also uses 100% of CPU in the process, and I have to use task manager to stop svchost and Windows Update from consuming all my cpu.

I've tried every fix I can find on the Internet, including the svchost fix and the Windows Update fixit program from Microsoft. I've reinstalled the Windows Update Program itself, but nothing works.

I've recently reinstalled all my .Net Frameworks, and I can't get the security fixes I need for them or any other security updates from Microsoft. This is really frustrating, and it's consumed a lot of my time this past week. Is there any fix that will work for this Windows Update problem?
