Windows cant check for updates error 80245003

Error 80245003 appears when i go to windows update. (vista)
Can anyone help.

Sand i

0x80245003 WU_E_REDIRECTOR_ID_SMALLER The redirectorId in the
downloaded wuredir.cab is smaller than the cached cab.

Whatever that means <w> On an XP system, the wuredir.cab is located at
WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\WuRedir
See if you can delete the contents of WuRedir by stopping the Automatic
Update service first, then delete the contents of WuRedir
Restart the AU service and then access Windows Update

To reach Services, go to Start > right click My Computer > click Manage
In the console tree, click Services and Applications, and then click
Services
Right click Automatic Updates and click Stop
REMEMBER to restart Automatic Updates after deleting the contents of WuRedir

[NOTE: Vista not installed here and the above was gleaned from the end
of this MSKB:

Hi Sandy,
The method described by Mowgreen should fix the issue, but I would like to
understand how the machine got into this situation.
Can you please reply with C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log from the machine?

I got this same error message on a Vista Ultimate install as soon as I
installed MS Office SBE 2003.

How come I can never get a Microsoft tech to ask me to send my windows
update log? I've been having an error 80072EFD for 2 months now on Windows
Vista Home Premium and all I get is drivel telling me about firewalls I
don't have. I've even turned off Windows Firewall and still get the error.
I'm down to manually installing the updates. As usual Windows Vista is in
Beta and they are using live unsuspecting customers to test it out. Just
say NO to Vista.

Hi,
Can you post the few hundred lines that show the error and the activity

Sudheer, I too have developed this problem. Everything was working fine, but
now both Windows Update and Defender will not look for updates. Cany you
send me an e-mail I can send the log file to you? Thank you,

It continues - is this enough for you to help me?

I too have developed this problem.

I'm unable to update my windows or Defender. I can't find the
C:\window\windowsupdate.log on my computer.

I think that's why I can't right click the automatic updates and click stop
to delete the contents in WuRedir.

Please help I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate.
