That's what I get when I attempt to search for updates at Microsoft Update.

Tried disabling Avast and Quero Toolbar, thinking they might be the culprit.

Found two KB articles about this error labeled Solution I and Solution 2,

but they both involve proxy settings on a LAN. I have no proxy settings and

I have no LAN. I have made repeated attempts to download the latest updates

since they came out Tuesday, but always the same result. I am running

Windows XP sp2 with IE6.

Hi gardenerstouch,

 

If you are running Spybot and Zone Alarm, turn both off, but temporarily

turn on your Windows firewall. Then try going to the Windows Update site.

 

I had a similar problem at the end of June and by temporarily turning off ZA

and Spybot -- including its Tea Timer feature -- I was successful in

installing the latest software that the Windows Update site requires.
