Unfortunately, it didn't help me. I will get with my brother-in-law to see
if he can figure it out. My windowsupate folder is on the C drive under
programs. I know the two updates download ok but I still get the failure
message.

Most likely because you have failed to provide *any* context for the code
which you are reporting, not even your OS, which would at least have given
us some clues about which version of WU you happen to be using.


Try a search?

<title>You receive an &quot;Initialization Error 0x80070052&quot; error message when you try to access the Windows Update Web
site</title>
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=836983

(MSN search for
(0x80070052 OR 80070052) site:microsoft.com
)


BTW that article happens to refer to WUv4 so it looks
as if Fernando was assuming that case for you.
