I have given up with this blasted 0x8024402C error. Am suffering behind
this wretched ISA server and I have decided to wait until broadband comes
so that I can scrap this server, replace it with a proper router, these
proxy thingies and then get the updates down.

I have just had enough of MS and their inability to get their updates
working with their own code. The word 'pathetic' just doesn't say enough.

Here's what works for our company:
1. Click on Start, and then click Run.
2. Type cmd in the Open box to get a DOS prompt.
3. Type "net stop wuauserv" without the quotes at the command prompt, and press
Enter.
4. Delete (or put in recycle bin) the contents of
C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution (but not the SoftwareDistribution folder)

5. Type net start wuauserv at the command prompt, and press Enter.
6. Now try Windows Update again.
