Erm, it could be a bad class file within IE. Windows Update basically is "hfnetchk" with a few add-ons etc..... You can also run the MBSA which will provide a good sample of whats not on, though to be honest, starting with the latest SP and then running update is a better bet as sometimes for a non patched machine it may not recognise the DLL which needs to be replaced/renewed etc..

There are numerous problems with Windows Update not always reporting accurately. I certainly wouldn't trust it for a production server. Run hfnetchk or a similar update checker, then apply missing patches manually.
