I got as far as trying to rename c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution. I got an
error that said the folder was in use and I was unable to rename. Any
suggestions?

Here's the only solution found on Google :
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windows.server.update_services/browse_frm/thread/5a9bf82ecdc8a899/290bf1b7913214d7?lnk=st&q=0xc80003f3&rnum=5&hl=en#290bf1b7913214d7

OK. I fixed this problem and here is how I did it.

1. First, I again performed the following:
regsvr32 MSXML3.dll /s
net stop wuauserv
cd /d %windir%\SoftwareDistribution
rd /s /q DataStore
net start wuauserv

2. This resulted in the following errors in WindowsUpdate.log:

0x80240013
0x8024400a
0x80240017

3. Next, I registered the following:

regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 initpki.dll
regsvr32 mssip32.dll

4. Then I recieved the following errors in WindowsUpdate.log:

0x80070008
0x80240017

5. Finally, I performed the following:

Stopped the Automatic Update service
Renamed the SoftwareDistribution folder in C:\Windows to
SoftwareDistribution.old
Started the Automatic Update service.

Hope this helps someone in the future.

Follow the steps as they are laid out in exact order.
Please post back if this resolves the issue or not.

Tried stopping the AU service and deleting the SoftwareDistribution folder,
but no luck. Funny thing is, Windows Update has been working fine on this
machine up until this latest round of patches. No changes have been made to
this machine in the meantime.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
