Download and install the User Profile Hive Cleanup Service
Download details: User Profile Hive Cleanup Service

UPHClean v1.5e readme.txt

In Start, Control Panel, Automatic Updates I have Automatic not checked and have checked "Notify me but don't automatically download or install". When notified I always commence the process by selecting Start, Help and Support, Keep your computer up-to-date with Windows Update and opt for a Custom install.

Hope this helps.

I hadn't seen anything revelaing when I looked at the event log in
August, but looked at it again tonight. Still nothing conclusive,
but decided to dsiable Norton's LiveUpdate task which was logged just
prior to the event log entry corresponding to the error. After
restarting the PC, the Window's update was retrieved and installed
sucessfully. I then restarted the PC, and re-enabled Norton's
LiveUpdate service, and restarted the PC. All is working correctly
now in this area. Don't know the exact nature of the problem. Looks
like clearing up the problem, which was created by the failed update
back in August, wouldn't allow both the LiveUpdate and the Windows
Update to be scheduled at startup.
There is a warning I see in the event log (below) - is there a way to
determine what service had the registry tied up when the OS was
trying to save the user registry?
Thanks for suggesting going to the event log.

************* Warning event log entry ******************
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1517
Date: 12/24/2006
Time: 5:28:47 PM
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: MICHAEL3G
Description:
Windows saved user MICHAEL3G\Owner registry while an application or
service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used
by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be
unloaded when it is no longer in use.
This is often caused by services running as a user account, try
configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or
NetworkService account.
