I can't access Windows Update...Please help!!

When I click in Windows Update in my browser, it forwards me to this link:
http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.co...ult.aspx?ln=en

From there it says the following and stops:
Checking for the latest version of the Windows Update software...

Depending on your connection speed, this might take a minute. During this
time, you may receive one or more security warnings. Review each security
warning to ensure that the content is signed by Microsoft, and then click
Install or Yes to install the software.

Can anyone please tell me what's wrong...I have tried everything I can think
of...It used to work just fine...Thanks

Hi

Please try this:

Click Start >> Run >>

Type the follow command in the Open box.
"net.exe stop wuauserv" (w/o quotes)
Press Ok

Repeat the same for the following commands:

regsvr32.exe wuapi.dll
regsvr32.exe wups.dll
regsvr32.exe wuaueng.dll
regsvr32.exe wucltui.dll
regsvr32.exe MSXML3.dll
net.exe start wuauserv

Now try the WU site again.
