[jaws-uk] Microsoft Update failing to install

Hello,

Can anyone please help?  I have freshly installed Win XP Home SP2 on my 
machine, activated and registered Win XP, installed AVG Free Edition virus 
checker, and am now attempting to apply Microsoft updates.  I did have 
automatic updates turned on; the Windows Genuine Advantage update installed 
ok.  I am using JAWS 7.0 in 40 minute mode, as I only need it to administer 
the machine for another family member.

Further updates could not be installed until the latest Automatic Updates 
package was installed - but it wouldn't install.  The package downloaded ok, 
but the installation always failed, and the next time I went to Windows 
Update it was downloaded again.  When Automatic Updates was on, the update 
tried to install itself at turn-off if I had not clicked on the balloon 
beforehand.  It still failed.

I have tried turning Automatic Updates off; switching off AVG.  I don't 
think my firewalled router is to blame because the package downloads, but 
someone might think otherwise.

Could the 40 minute JAWS be the problem?  If not, what else?  Any ideas 
please?

Regards,

Norman
