You demand free help without delay. This has not been forthcoming.
Here is a website that can help you to accomplish your threat to switch:

Windows Update support from Microsoft seems to have been changed
from unlimited and free for all to free only for non-OEM users. You could
double check this if you are using OEM Vista. Here is the WU support link:

MS support is much more obsequious than newsgroup responders.

Running an in place Vista Upgrade is likely to fix your WU problems:

See Mark's response there, which includes how to run a system file check.
