Have you tried restarting your phone and giving Kies another try? Any official update from Samsung/Vodafone should be tested thoroughly beforehand to make sure it will work fine with your phone.

Do an uninstall of Kies and then redownload the installer, and reinstall it. Let me know if that works for you. Also, I've posted in your other thread.

Also try unmounting your external SD card if you have one, and make sure that you are running the Touchwiz interface from Samsung, not a home replacement like LauncherPro or ADW
