You haven't provided enough information to get focused help. See this
site for what details should be in your next newsgroup post:

In the meantime:

1. Do you have an antivirus installed that has its own "security
center"? McAfee and Norton do and they will disable the XP SP2 Security
Center during installation if you say "yes".

2. Is the Security Center service running?
Start>Run>services.msc [enter] and scroll down to find out.

The First Question Of Troubleshooting: what changed between the time
things worked and the time they didn't?

The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the
malware/virus status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what
programs (and versions) did you use to determine this?
