6/10/09 Vista update stuck on Configuring Updates

Basically I went through the usual automatic updates today for my Vista OS (32 bit, Home Premium)...and everything was going fine till I noticed my screen was stuck on "Configuring Updates Step 3 of 3 0%" for nearly an hour. I quickly logged on to my desktop computer which i use only for emergencys to see what exactly how to get passed this seeing as Vista tells you "Dont not turn of your computer". Luckily I read about press F8, and going into safe mode and just doing a system restore from last save point. Ended up turning off my laptop, going through the system restore, and so far there seems to be no immediate problems. My question is, should I try and reintall this update, because I read that it contains about 32 patchs for known threats.

Try it again and see if anything happens, Backup your data just in case. If it freezes again let us know what updates exactly you are trying to install and your make and model of your computer.

Sometimes it is just a random thing that won't happen again and will work fine from here on out. No one knows.

Follwed all your step,s and everything worked out fine. Got nervous for a sec, because it seemed like it was stuck on update one for a couple minutes, but then out of nowhere it skipped to update 3 with a full 100%. So yea, thanks again.
