Windows 2000 Update and Itunes problems

Everytime i try to update with Windows update, i get Error number: 0x80090305
and it will not allow me to update it. I am running SP4 and i'm not sure if
and when i upgraded from SP3 if this was the cause of the problem.

Another issue i'm having is with iTunes... I can no longer purchase music
from the music store.. I can browse, listen to songs, but once i click "buy
song" i get an message that reads "itunes could not connect to the music
store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again".

These problems never occured a month ago.. Just recently.. I'm wondering if
they are somehow related.. I know for a fact that the iTunes problem has
something to do with something in my system folder, or something to do with
perhaps my last Windows update and has nothing to do with the program itself
since i've uninstalled and reinstalled it twice already. I've contacted Apple
about this and they have been unable to help.

If anyone could give me some tips on how to
resolve these issues, i would appreciate it. Thanks!

Possibly, e.g., if iTunes requires a secure protocol to be used.

Try a search?
