Questions that are asked here are answered here, so that others can
also benefit from these answers.

What exactly do you mean by "My computer keeps blocking.."?

Are you being blocked from downloading the updates from Microsoft?
Are you being blocked from installing the updates after they have been
downloaded?

Please include the complete *verbatim* text of any and all error
messages or other advisories that are associated with this "blocking".


Good luck

With no error message or anything else to explain exactly what
happened?

We cannot see your computer. We need you do describe to us, in
complete detail, exactly what happens when you try to install these
updates.

There are many possble causes for your problems, including a
virus/spyware/trojan of some kind that is blocking these updates, or a
damaged or missing Windows component file that is needed in order to
process these updates, or a security/firewall program that is
configured to block these. Without explicit information from you we
cannot possibly determine what the cause is and therefore cannot help
you to fix the problem.

One additional thing you could do. Use Notepad to open the file
C:\WindowsUpdate.txt and scroll down to the end of the file. Copy the
last dozen or so lines in the file and paste them into your response
back here.

Good luck
