SUS agent failure

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

We are running SUS and tried to pushout 4 patches to a workstation. The
system log on the workstation shows an error log event ID 20 with discription
Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with
error 0x80240017: Security Update for Windows XP (KBxxxxxx). This happened to
all 4 updates we tried to push down. tried to Google the error (0x80240017)
and found nothing. Any ideas?

thanks,
