Hi;
Suggest you boot into Safe Mode, then delete the " ..\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" folder. You will lose your update history, but that isn't really much good anyway these days.
Once you boot back into Normal mode, verify that you have any 3rd party pop-up blockers and file transfer agents disabled. Then open IE and go to Microsoft Update again http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/ Hopefully this time the necessary MU files will download/install.

Interestingly (and disappointingly), the update website keeps
prompting me to upgrade to Microsoft Update but will not let me. I
walk through the process (Start, review license, etc) and get to the
"Check for Updates" screen. I click on the button and it brings me
right back to the "Try Microsoft Update Today" page.
Both machines have all Windows OS updates installed (both critical and
optional).
Thanks.
Jon
