Error Code: 8024402C - cannot dowmload update anymore

Hi Oscar, here it is:

(NOTE, for the same reason, I couldn't download the BITS v2 update
demanded by WU when I first connected. I downloaded WindowsXP-KB842773
manualy and installed it.)

Hi

Can you obtain BITSAdmin
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...-us/bits/bits/
bitsadmin_tool.asp) and then do the following:
1) Start the download as you did before
2) As soon as the new window opens stating that updates are being
downloaded, run BITSAdmin as follows:
bitsadmin /list /allusers /verbose

And send the output.
