Can someone please help me!? I downloaded sp2 about a week or 2 ago and ever
since I can't update,not once since I've installed it. I've searched all the
newsgroup post's on this error number and tried every suggestion including
downloading xml 3.0 sp5 and even xml 4.0 I've registered every dll that has
been suggested. Tried turning off my firewall and my automatic updates,but I
always get the same error. I even re-registered IE. I will post my windows
update log file in the next post. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here is my windows update log:
