I've cleaned the registry, retried update, rebooted, and still no luck. Any clue as to what this error code refers to ? My current version of IE is now dysfunctional too!

OK here is a solution (that worked for me):

a. Install IE9 from: http://internet-explorer.uk.msn.com/

b. Reboot

c. Uninstall IE9 (From: Control Pannel > Programs > Programs and Features > Installed Updates > Windows Internet Explorer 9)

d. Reboot

e. Run windows update and install IE9 (Now it will work).

f. Reboot.

===

I hope no more Reboots.

    I paid them their one year fee for technical service and it took them three days to resolve the issue......basically they had to wipe my computer...........I still have programs on my desktop from their service and in my files that they left dangling on my computer instead of removing them after their tragic attempt at fixing a problem they have no fix for.  

    I have switched to Google and vow never to ever use IE ever again.

    Interesting that after 4 years the problem still exists....even on fresh installs.

    I have tried every single solution here as well as many other places. All on a fresh install of Windows server 2008 SP1 x86.

    This continues to happen after SP2, after prerequisites installed manually, after fixit for .Net, after fixit for windows installer, after fixit for windows update, after readiness tool, after sfc /scannow, after uninstalling and reinstalling IE8 either manually using the offline install or using windows update.

    Since it is server 2008 x86 SP1/SP2 you can not install IE10 or IE11 so there really is NO FIX

    Im having the same problem to be honest, i spoke to a Microsoft representative and he tapped in to my computer and he couldn't even solve it for an hour and 30 minutes, then gave up unresolved was helpful nether the less, he tried installing iexplorer 11 and tried rebooting several times, he still couldn't do it, its really annoying that this is happening if anyone else knows how to fix this please reply thanks.
