Try disabling your Firewall and your Anti virus (Is it by chance AVG??) ItThey might be stopping the input., particualrly the Anti virus.

I have just found this. It does not entirely relate to the absence of the "service" but one never knows!
Download it and try it. The report I read, to get to the site, stated that the program finds a trojan, apparently missed by other anti malware programs, which can cripple your updates. Its is a form of the Vundoo virus.
