Windows update freezes on powerdown

When I power down for the day, I am presented with a notice that an update is
in progress and to not turn off power manually (it will occur automatically).
The screen remains and the text flashes, but the update does not complete. I
have left it undisturbed overnight and find this same condition the next day.
This condition has repeated for several days. I have gone to the Microsoft
update site and it tells me I have no updates to download, but that one is in
progress.
Hope you can help.

You're going to have to find the Windows Update discussion group to get help
with this.

Here's how to find it.

As you appear to be using a web interface:

http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx

Click the + beside your language. then scroll down to Windows. In Windows,
find the category for Windows Update. Open it and find a group to post in.
