Anybody having a problem where System Update consistently fails?
Every time I run it, it gets to a list of things to download or update.
Whatever I do next (click to view details on an item, or click to start updating), I get the following:

ThinkVantage System Update has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

In the error log, I see:

.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.1433 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (79FFEE24) (80131506)

I have both uninstalled and reinstalled System Update, and uninstalled and reinstalled all the .NET packages on my system, to no avail.

Anybody see this before, and fix it?

Maybe not much of a help, but SU has been always well known for its bugs. I always prefer to manually update my system.

Thanks - yeah, I know. The reason it matters now is, I'm trying to install the GPS software, and when I download it and install it, it also fails, this time with scripting errors of some sort.
