Can you try opening a command prompt window and typing the following

route print

tracert download.windowsupdate.com

and copy&paste the results back?

Turned out my bad 'route print' and 'tracert' results were caused by my
firewall. I turned the firewall (Comodo) off and turned my WinXP
firewall on (I didn't figure I should be out there without any firewall
at all), and this time (using cable ISP), I got significantly different
results:
