problems downloading updates

Win 2k Advanced server.

I cannot get any patches/hotfixes to automatically download from MS
the entry in the event log is of this nature:

The administrator NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM canceled job "WU Client Download" on
behalf of <domain>\<login>. The job ID was {78DB2876-9DE1-4855-98E4-
F0A63FC18830}.

looking at the log entry in windowsupdate.log:

According to the error codes, there is a problem with proxy authentication.
We have an ISA server, but generally speaking, other servers on the domain
can download and install their patches with not problems.

I've changed the proxycfg settings to direct with no success.

Any ideas?

Unfortunately, we're not allowed to do that - we have some kind of
corporate support thing but its lapsed.

Anyway, I can do a manual download and still run the installs ok. I'll
stick to that instead.
