To correct your problem with Cryptographic Services:

Step #1

Perform a Disk Cleanup:

Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup

Step #2:

Go to Start > Run and type: MSCONFIG , and hit enter.
Select "Normal Startup", click "apply" and reboot.

Step #3:

1. Start the Administrative Tools utility in your Control Panel.
2. Double-click Services.
3. Right-click "Cryptographic Services", and then click Properties.
4. Click "Automatic" for Startup type, and then click Start.
5. Try installing the Updates again. If the problem persists, go to Step 6.
6. Click Start, and then click Run.
7. In the Open box, type: CMD , and then click OK.
8. At the Command Prompt, type (or Copy & Paste) the following commands,
       each individually, pressing ENTER after each line:

       net stop cryptsvc

       ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 oldcatroot2

       net start cryptsvc

       Type EXIT to close the Command Prompt, and install the patch:

http://microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=2354406C-C5B6-44AC-9532-3DE40F69C074&displaylang=en

If installation continues to fail, try this additional procedure:

Click Start > Run and type: CMD , hit enter.

In the Command Prompt window, type the following commands,
pressing ENTER after each line:

net stop cryptsvc

net start cryptsvc

regsvr32 softpub.dll

regsvr32 wintrust.dll

regsvr32 initpki.dll

regsvr32 dssenh.dll

regsvr32 rsaenh.dll

regsvr32 cryptdlg.dll

EXIT

Try installing the patch once again.
