I'm using Windows Update and have gotten the same error code - 80246002 for 3
different updates: Internet Explorer 7, Windows Malicious Software Removal
Tool - April 2008, and Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version
1.1 Service Pack 1.

This is a new computer, and I want to make sure I can take care of these
updates before loading other programs.

Any ideas on how to get these programs installed? I had no problem
downloading them, just a problem trying to install them - I've tried doing
all 3 together, one-at-a-time, and nothing seems to be working.

Thanks

follow this link, it is a known safe site for me, install it and run the
select check all,(green check marks next to the GO button, it will take a
few seconds to run, then try your updates again.. I would reboot after I
ran dialafix..
http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix

from the site:
Dial-a-fix is an advanced utility for 32-bit versions of Microsoft Windows
written by DjLizard in Borland Delphi 7 that repairs various Windows
problems, such as:

a.. Windows Update errors and problems with Automatic Updates
b.. SSL, HTTPS, and Cryptography service (signing/verification) issues
c.. COM/ActiveX object errors and missing registry entries
d.. and more.
Dial-a-fix (hereafter known as "DAF") is a collection of known fixes gleaned
from Microsoft Knowledgebase articles, Microsoft MVPs, and other important
support forums, that will assist you in repairing problems with your system.
Although this tool is ordinarily meant for power users, technicians, and
administrators, it is quite safe to use even without technical guidance
(although guidance is recommended). Simply choose the solutions you wish to
apply via checkmarks, and click GO. There are other buttons and tools
present on the main dialog as well, such as the policy scanner. All tools
and checkmarks identify their purpose when you mouse over them.

DAF's primary philosophy is to fix problems by setting various things back
to their original Microsoft defaults. DAF currently does not interface with
or repair any third party programs (and there are no plans to do so).

DAF works on all pertinent 32-bit versions of Windows: 98, 98SE, Me, 2000,
XP, and Server 2003. Dial-a-fix dynamically disables functions that are not
applicable to your version of Windows. The version of Windows with the most
support and functionality is currently Windows XP.

Good luck!!
