Ya'll could try this:
Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft
Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP
installation:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144
or this:
WinSock XP Fix
http://www.snapfiles.com/get/winsockxpfix.html
or this:
Dial-a-fix
http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/...al-a-fix.shtml

I am going shoot my computer...Can someone tell me how to fix this
problem...I have tried everything posted. Nothing is working!

Try reinstalling the AU Service -


You receive a "Windows Update has encountered an error and cannot display the requested
page" error message when you try to install an update

See: The Automatic Updates service is missing

The AU isn`t missin`
In Control Panel - > System - > Automatic Updates; Automatic (recommended)
is checked
but in Control Panel - > Security Center; I can`t turn ON Automatic Updates.
I get this error "We`re sorry. The Security Center could not change your
Automatic Updates settings. To try changing this settings yourself, go to
system in Control Panel..." bla bla bla. Wich is already checked.

I`ve closed almost all process in task manager (thought maybe some program,
virus, trojan, worm is closing my AU instantly) but for nothin`...

I`ve reinstalled my AU... with no use...

I`ve used WinsockxpFix.exe and Dial-a-fix.exe... nothin'

I`m using Mcaffe antivirus...

I have my Windows installed from december 2006... And this is the major
problem that i have been trough... I`ll hope maybe this problem could be
solved... without reinstalling my OS

PS:excuse my english
