For your info, a Safe boot is not required.

Just run services.msc , then stop the BITS (Background Intelligent
Transfer Service), and Automatic Update Service (XP) or Windows Update
Service (Vista). Then you can rename SoftwareDistribution and restart
the two services. Had this just now with my Vista Ultimate machine,
and this worked fine, with no need to reboot.

I tried every solution I could find for EVERY windows update error to try to
fix this problem on Vista. I eventually got it working by installing MSXML3
