"Update is not allowed to download due to regulation" errors translate to "Server busy; Automatic Updates will try again later."
The above notwithstanding, CrystalBall© sez...
Updates are not installed successfully from Windows Update, from Microsoft Update, or by using Automatic Updates after you repair a Windows XP installation:

NB: Also applies to clean installs, upgrade installs, and Recovery installs.
PS: Where did you get the WinXP CD that "included SP3"? Was SP3 slipstreamed onto the CD?

Explain, please. Is this a brand-new machine or is it just new for you?
Was SP3 installed when you purchased it? Had WinXP been reinstalled and
then SP3 installed?
Hardware is not brand-new but previous C: partition was reformatted.
The brand-new XP Pro disk included SP3 (part no X14-72249) and so was
installed "without the option"
This is the only time this hardware has had XP on it. It was hardware
upgraded, freshly formatted, and XP installed (with SP3) a month ago,
activated 3 days ago.
What do the most recent entries (start at the bottom and scroll up) in
WindowsUpdate.log have to say about all this? (See #3 below)
That is one big file.
OK. I'm assuming you don't want a slab of WindowsUpdate.log posting
here.
It looks like "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 6 for
Windows XP (KB950759)" and "Security Update for Windows XP (KB951748)"
have downloaded and been installed when I, and the PC, shut down at
bedtime. The second of these "Security Update for Windows XP
(KB951748)" NEVER appeared in the list of files for download.
The IE7 upgrade gets one mention but is not downloaded.
Regulation: {9482F4B4-E343-43B6-B170-9A65BC822C77} - Update
C44BF113-A360-47C2-93AD-D90FB0F29C70 is "PerUpdate" regulated and can
NOT download. Sequence 6820 vs AcceptRate 100.
"Update is not allowed to download due to regulation."
I still have Automatic Update is set at Notify.
