windows update wants to restart all the time

After downloading some recent updates the computer asks me to reboot in order
to install them. I restart the computer and the message appears again so I
assumed it needed several restarts. Unfortunately this is still persisting
following some 6-7 reboots. When I enter the Windows Update screen at
Control Panel\Security\Windows Update I am unable to check for updates as the
screen is telling me to restart.

RE: windows update wants to restart all the time

I don't receive a message saying "configuring updates stage 3 of 3. 0%
complete", when the computer restarts it simply loads the desktop as normal
without any configuration screen.
