I've been searching everywhere for some help on this and have come up

server.

I have tried disabling AntiVirus (Avast), Spybot, Windows Firewall,
and added the update site as added in IE7. The thing that is driving
me crazy is all the postings on my error refer to ISA and Proxy...But
I have neither! :)

Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!

Try disabling Spybot Tea Timer resident, if enabled.

Read *all* of this KB article, including the More Information
section:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896226

For home users, no-charge support is available by calling 1-866-PCSAFETY
in
the United States and in Canada or by contacting your local Microsoft
subsidiary. There is no-charge for support calls that are associated
with
security updates. When you call, clearly state that your problem is
related
to a Security Update and cite the update's KB number (e.g., KB123456).

For more information about how to contact your local Microsoft subsidiary
for security update support issues, visit the International Support Web
site:http://support.microsoft.com/common/international.aspx

For enterprise customers, support for security updates is available
through
your usual support contacts.

I've uninstalled Spybot & TeaTimer completely. I also read that entire
KB. The thing is, I am not behind a proxy and the only firewall is my
router and windows xp built in. I tried disabling the Winxp built in
with no help. And nothing changed on router, plus other PC's on the
same network are updating fine.

See if tweaking your MTU settings (i.e., to 1492) help at all:http://www.broadbandreports.com/tweaks

See the free support options I posted in my last reply. Good luck.

Thanks for the quick reply. I tried the MTU tweak, Changed my MTU to
1492...It wanted me to lower my RWIN to 4096-8192 so i set it to 4096.
Rebooted the PC
Tried Updating
Failed...
Same error.

Re the free support, this is a business computer. Microsoft transfered
me to a support person who then told me it was 295.00 to fix this.
It's an old pc we're using for Remote Desktop purposes...Before I
spend 3 bills on support I'll spend 425 on a brand new PC...

Thanks!
