The manual updates worked fine for me and since I did one update manually, MSE has been updating automatically and normally ever since.

And since this recently happened to me too, I had the page handy. This happens to a lot of people - so much so that Microsoft has a special page where you can download the updates manually. I have used MSE for over a year and have never experienced this problem. I then used the “help” link in MSE to read about my problem and get a resolution to no avail. Since that day, I have tried to update MSE numerous times but get a reading that it could not install updates because of internet or network connectivity problems. This past Sunday, I received a notice from Microsoft Security Essentials stating my computer might be at risk that it needed updating. Linda can’t update her Microsoft Security Essentials
