When searching for available updates on the Update site, you receive the 0x8024402C error
http://update.microsoft.com/windowsu...cleid=30&ln=en
A misconfigured Proxy/Firewall can cause this problem. Double-check the Proxy/Firewall
settings

You may receive an error message when you search for available updates on the Windows
Update Web site or on the Microsoft Update Web site
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=883821
