WU 5 works only once per Boot and then error 0x80072EE2

Hello,

I have a strange problem since I have WU V5.
Notice that when I go directly to the V4 link I don't have the Problem.

The problem is as follow :

First time I'm starting my PC (XP Pro) without doing anything I can go to
the windows update site then look for the last updates.
I can install all the updates then do everything I want without any problem.
But
If I try to go again on the Windows update site then try to look at the
Update available I have the error 0x80072EE2.

If I restart my PC go again to updates, it works fine the first time.
I've notice that, if after my first reboot I'm surfing or doing something
else, then I can't get the update as well.

I had a look at all discussions with the error 0x80072EE2 but I don't have
any solution that fixe my problem.
Anyway all proxy, Firewall, networks problems may not be the cause as it
works the first time.
I try to clean my cache without any success.

Please if you have this problem or have an idea it would be very
appreciated.
Thank you very much for any help.

Karl.
