    Disable windows defender if its running, by going to services & try updates again.
    Whats your antivirus & firewall?

    Norton Internet Security but removed it & installed AVG.
    I have a firwall on my router and also using just windows vista firewall.
    Can't disable windows defender.

    make sure that your firewall and AVG let Windows Update connect. Sometimes these programs will block connections.

    Tried what you said but still the same ?

    I have downloaded updates before this problem, however no updates are now showing and also it says the last update was never?
