How about posting more information, such as, when does the error occur ?

Is the system able to update successfully ?

 

0x800705b4 is a time-out issue

 

IF the definition files can not be downloaded/installed, try to manually

download them from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/default.aspx

 

Look under ' Latest Definition Updates ' on the top right of the page

and select the appropriate defs for the Version of Vista that is installed.

Download and SAVE the defs, do NOT run it.

Once the D/L is complete, close all open browsers and programs

Now install the defs.
