Basically all the above solutions tell me to do what I have already done.  When I go to services.msc and I click on "automatic updates" and "enable" them and click "start" that is when I get the error.  Attached is my Hijack This log.

well I just saw your running adaware and spybot also turn all that junk off when you run these 2 programs.
I had the same problem with my pc. superantipyware was able to detect and remove 3 spy ware progs. I just had to re enable automatic updates service. Thanks a lot
