Code 80004002 Windows Update - Vista Home Premium

[Selkirk64]

In Windows Update in Vista Home Premium, when I click on update now, it comes
back with Error(s) found: Code 80004002.
How do I solve this?
I tried using:
1. Click on 'Start', choose 'Run'. In the open box, type cmd, and then click
'OK'.
2. Type the following commands. Press 'ENTER' after each command:
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wups2.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll

Only the first command executed correctly.

That solution was for Windows XP, the only thing I can suggest for you is to reinstall the
Windows update client -

A new version of the Windows Update Agent is available
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946928

If that fails, you'll need to contact MS -

Unfortunately, the new update agent seems to install correctly, but Windows
Update still returns the same Code even after a reboot.

I have written to MS support as recommended.

Please post back with MS's workable response so others may benefit.

Then come back and post in some form of English that can be understood
so that someone *may* assist you.

If English is your native language, then please turn off the computer
and toss it out the window.

Thanks Mow! I was looking for a reason to buy a new keyboard. Spitting a
mouthful of coffee on it also helped make my decision.

Thanks, but my Samsung is protected by my patented liquid-proof monitor
