Using PC mover

A couple of months ago I purchased a Dell Inspiron 1720 with Vista. I used PC
mover to transfer all data from my Dell Inspiron 5100 running XP to the 1720.
Now I believe I have updates and hotfixes from my 5100 on my 1720. Does
anyone know if I can delete them? Or will deleting them cause me more
problems than I already have.
1. Cannot download or install most updates, some do get through.
2. Cannot create restore point.
3. Cannot uninstall programs.
4. Cannot install upgrades from a CD.
5. Currently disabled windows firewall, and deleted McAfee. No other
firewall as far as I can tell.

Any comments and/or help will be appreciated.

I have not checked everything out, but I have the same issue with the
firewall.

On my new Vista laptop, I cannot select to invoke the Windows firewall.

On tech at Laplink suggested to reload the software (vista) or check
the Windows site for help.

I did put in another service request. have not heard yet. But if I
do, I will let you know.

Thank you.
 
If you are running Norton, Trend, etc security suites, they have their own
Firewall.
And then you can not turn Windows Firewall on.
Are you getting warnings from the Windows Security Center?
