    Windows Update error 0x800b0100 [see Method 3]

    0x800b0100 errors are typically symptoms of (a) an ongoing infection and/or (b) a previously-installed but not fully-removed Norton and/or McAfee application.

    Perform a DISM method once again by following the steps given here:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821

    If it doesn't solve the problem, go to "What the System Update Readiness tool does" section of article and under "Logging" you will find path to two log files. Upload both of them to SkyDrive and post a link here.

    Additionally, you can also try Windows Update Troubleshooter once again:
