Please disregard this post as I have resolved the issue. I executed the
following in a cmd window:
C:\>windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /?
This produced the following help information:
/wuforce
/quiet
/norestart
I ran the installer with the /wuforce option and that resolved the issues
detailed below.

I have found the following tool to be helpful: http://download.cnet.com/Dial-a-fix/...2_4-84157.h tml
It will automatically reset WU and other issues, including flushing the
Software Distribution folder. Try it and see if it helps.
P.S. it does not recognized IE8 so just ignore when/if you get a message
"cannot recognize current browser"; it will still work despite that message....

With the veritable wealth of information you've given, my suggestion for a
"quick fix" is to press the start button, then select "shut down" and take
the dog for a looooong walk!

Vista SP1 is a prerequisite for installing SP2. If you use Windows Update
or the Automatic Update feature in Windows Vista, you will not be offered
the option to install SP2 until you first install SP1
