I recall a similar post yesterday (in the viruses and worms sub-forum I believe) about an alert on a windows update element - that one was considered a false positive and rectified very quickly.

Ensure that you have the latest virus definitions update and try to update windows again.

Thanks, I see that the 103.1.138.139 IP (in the images posted) is m1.com.sg and the OP, 'tantawsern' is also in that region.
