You're mowst welcome ... What happens now when you open Windows Update 
in the Control Panel ?Again, Windows 7 does *NOT* update via Internet Explorer accessing the 
Windows Update site and I do not understand why you are clicking links 
to WU on the KB article.
In Windows 7, when one clicks a link to the WU site then the Windows 
Update Control Panel window is supposed to open. If it's not, then 
either the system is being redirected by a DNS exploit or the OS has 
been exploited by malware.1) Did you do the steps to reset the proxy configuration to no proxy 
server ?2)Is the system on a wireless or wired network ?3)a. Have you checked for the presence of malware while in *Safe Mode* 
with MBAM's most *recent* definitions installed ?b. Where did you download MBAM from and, can you access this page ?
 ) Open the Windows Update icon in Control Panel.
Click the Check for updates link in the left frame. What happens ?
If the system still can not update, then please post at least the last 
50 or so lines of the WindowsUpdate.log into your reply along with the 
**above requested information**.
