I don't know, why? Seriously, you need to provide a lot more information
about your system and the problem. This link will show you what details
to include in your next post:

You may also want to post in the Windows Update newsgroup instead of
this one since that is where the Windows Update experts hang out. It is
microsoft.public.windowsupdate.
Also very important:
The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time
things worked and the time they didn't?
The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the
malware/virus status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what
programs (and versions) did you use to determine this?
Be sure the computer is clean:

No information given to lead anyone to be able to help you.
Do this:
Get Dial-a-Fix:
http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix
Use its options to fix:
- Windows Installer
- Windows Update
- All the Registration Center options.
Turn off the "Empty System32\Catroot 2"
Do NOT do "Flush SoftwareDistribution".
Then click "GO" and wait until it is done... Reboot may be needed.
- Download/Install Windows Update v3.

(You may need to install it using the command line switch "/wuforce" right
after an additional reboot - immediately after logging in.)
- Download/Install the 927891 patch.
