Windows 98SE update error

I think I am missing a lot of important update for my computer. I get error
number 0x80090305. It happens right when it starts to scan for updates. It is
behind a wireless router. Maybe the connection is not getting through. Google
didn't help and the microsoft support faq's didn't provide my error number.
Please help.

I checked through google and microsoft faq's. Google showed me only people
who have the same problem as me. Can I please have a solution?

There seem to be plenty of hits, so many that I suggest you filter for
threads which contain only answers from MS. For example:

80090305 OR 0x80090305 MSFT OR MS group:microsoft.*

One common theme in resolved incidents seems to be that reinstalling
IE helped. Normally in that case I would suggest trying an IE Repair
first since it does much the same stuff after verifying that the necessary
modules are present. However, in this case I don't think that that would
help because the error apparently has something to do with security.
Perhaps you could reduce the time of a full reinstall to something like
the repair procedures in KB261328.


Good luck
