I have read in other forums that IE 9 has to go in before SP1. Do you have SP1 already. If so you might need to remove it to install IE 9 then reinstall SP1. In both cases I would recommend downloading the files from MS, disconnect from the internet, shutdown all apps including AV/Am then install from the downloaded files. I always do this with large updates.

Before going further, go to updates and check to see if there are any outstanding. This is often the cause of this error.

Yes I have Sp1. If that's the case I will stick with IE8. I would have to do a repair install because I deleted my SP1 files long ago. It would just not be worth it.
