50 copies of wuauclt.exe process, and can't restart

Well, automatic updates is now on and I am not getting an error, but I still cant open the automatic updates page. I can open the security center and close it not. The error that I was getting, (but not anymore) was rundll32.exe is not responding. From security center, I can open both windows firewall settings and internet options, but not automatic updates.

So when you click on Automatic Updates from the Security Center, what happens? Does it open with everything greyed out? Or does it just not open at all?

It doesn't open at all most of the time. Every once in a while it opens like ten minutes later. It seems like the restarting problem. Sometimes it doesn't do anything, other times it starts and takes a long time.

Download and Install a HOSTS File
A HOSTS file is a big list of bad web sites. The list has a specific format, a specific name, (name is just HOSTS with no file extension), and a specific location. Your machine always looks at that file in that location before connecting to a web site to verify the address. So the HOSTS listing can be used to "short circuit" a request to a bad website by giving it the address of your own machine.
Install MVPS Hosts File From Here
The MVPS Hosts file replaces your current HOSTS file with one containing well know ad sites etc. Basically, this prevents your computer from connecting to those sites by redirecting them to 127.0.0.1 which is your local computer.
