Windows Update page is blank in Vista

On my Vista machine, when I go to the Windows Update Control Panel option I
get a blank screen, devoid of anything else other than the outline of the
button and whatnot. I can still install updates and keep everything secure
but this is annoying as I can't see anything. Take a look...

Your imageshack graphics is not showing. If you have problems with
Windows 'Vista Control Panel not showing up properly'
(http://annoyances-resolved.blogspot....coming-up.html)
it could be due to software licensing service not running properly
