Problem with IE, MSE, Chrome & Windows Update: 0x80244019

Good day,

For quite a few weeks now I have had a problem with getting windows update and MSE to... well update :). Each time I attempt to do so, they always return with the error 0x80244019. I have been checking on other fourms, and a few users seem to have the same error, but none of the suggestions seem to resolve my issues. For some strange reason, when ever I try to access a page in IE or Chrome it always (no matter what page I attempt to go to) returns with the xampp homepage - and it's not even on! Here is an example with chrome (note the address bar ):

And with MSE:

And with IE:

I also tryed resetting IE by: Internet Options -> Advanced -> Reset. And checking the LAN and proxy settings etc. Which didn't work, I also tryed a command in cmd, which didn't work either (I got it from another page regarding a similar issue) I think it reset the network configurations or something o_O.

So, the only browser I can use is mozilla, and I can't update or anything so, I am really quite annoyed. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated.

please post C:\Windows\windowsupdate.log

OK, I updated .NET with that specific update, by doing it manually. And then waited for about 10 minutes and tryed again. I now have the error code 80072F78.

So manually installing a patch works great?

Temporary disable ALL firewalls and virusscanners and try windows updates again. post results

But downloading patch manually and installing it works without problem, correct?

try boot in safe mode and install updates
