Answer : Windows Server 2008 - hangs on collecting data, i can't install/uninstall any applications, etc

Issue resolved.  Had seen a post by another person who had the similar issue.  Seems as though after an hour or two the server begins to respond normaly.  Was able to remove the offending update (Forefront update) and the server is back up and running.
