From: Rick on 11 Sep 2008 20:38 WinXP Pro, Ver. 5.1.2600 SP2 Build 2600 Norton AntiVirus 360 FYI, When wuauclt.exe error window appears, the wuauclt.exe pricess is running in the task manager. If I disable automatic updates from local services, the error continues to pop up and the wuauclt.exe still shows up in the processes running window. If I disable automatic updates, shouldn't that keep the wuauclt.exe process from starting?

Yes, unless N360's "system protections" are re-enabling Automatic Updates service. What version of N360 is installed (e.g., N360 2008)? How long as it been installed? Did you upgrade from an earlier Norton application (e.g., NIS 2007; NAV 2006)? Has the machine ever been connected to the internet recently without an anti-virus application installed? N360 includes a firewall: Is the Windows Firewall also enabled? You first posted to this thread on 09 September: Was this a sudden, new problem? Has Automatic Updates ever worked on this machine? By any chance had you recently had occasion to do a Repair Install or a Clean Install of WinXP? -- ~PA Bear Rick wrote: > WinXP Pro, Ver. 5.1.2600 SP2 Build 2600 > Norton AntiVirus 360 > > FYI, > When wuauclt.exe error window appears, the wuauclt.exe pricess is running > in > the task manager.

From: Rick on 12 Sep 2008 22:12 Renaming the Software Distribution folder did the trick. I was able connect to the MS updates and the error message has not reappeared. I downloaded updates throughout the night, and now have SP3, along with other updates. I always have automatic updates for AV and windows enabled. My latest AV renewal was in June without any incidents. I had the wuauclt.exe error for a couple of days before the first post and it kept getting worse as time went on. I have never had a problem with MS updates in the past. I did not update anything, or do any repair install or clean install, nor add any new software. I have no idea how this could have started. I mainly use this computer for business accounting information and email. Anyway, I appreciate all of the help you have provided and am very thankfull for your service.
