Windows XP Home update

When I try to update I get a ( we're Sorry) Error # 0X8DDD0018
Please help me to fix this problem

Do see this MS Article - ID # 883614 -- http://support.microsoft.com/KB/883614

Your error exception is 0X8DDD0018. What it indicates is that Automatic Updates could be disabled, or Not started; or that
Background Intelligent Transfer Service could be disabled or Not started.

You must make sure these Win XP services are enabled and running:

Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)
Cryptographic Services
Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
System Restore Service

Go to Start menu >Run > MSCONFIG <enter>
Click on the "Services" Tab & review these services. They should have a green "tick/check" mark on left; and status "Running" on the far right.

Hi;

In addition to what Maurice posted, you may want to manually download
and install this update to BITS 2.0:
