That sounds like the source of the problem right there, a lot of things can go screwy when updates or other installations occur during a virus scan. I myself screwed up by running a virus scanner and a defrag at the same time

.
Since that may be the problem go to
update.microsoft.com and download the latest updates to see if that cures the issue.
