0x8024402C problem...

[silvatomas]

Hi!

I have installed 20 machines running Windows XP Pro SP1.

We have a computer running as a proxy (Linux/Squid).

Almost every computer updates with WindowsUpdate.

But in some (3 to be exact) i can't seem to update, i get a 0x8024402C error.

I've tried these commands suggested in the MS site:

proxycfg -d

net stop wuauserv

net start wuauserv

I've tried removing the wu* files from c:\windows\system32 to a temp directory so to when i run windowsupdate it reinstalls new files, but still the 8024402c error appears.

Anyone got any idea!?

Cheers!

Try and remove the user from all its groups and the add just the adminstrator group. Reboot, run windows updates and if iit works change the group settings back. That worked for me......
