Error 0x8024002b

Hi, I have just installed WD and the program failed to update the definitions.
I've followed the instructions listed in other posting like uninstall the
definition then run WD and ask it to update but all of that failed. Now I'm
still the yellow exclamation in my task bar and this error msg "windows
defender was unable to complete the update: 0x8024002b" keep popping up each
time I run the update. My WD definitions if out of date for 32 days already.
Can any one tell me what is going on.
Please advice
Thanks heaps

Thanks guys,
I don't know what I did it I got a green tick that said my comp is running
normally however I can't go to help and run update, the same error 0x8024002b
keep coming up. In regarding to firewall, I'm just using the one from
microsoft security center and I also tick to allow Windows Defender so I
don't think the prob came from firewall.
Keep me posted in regarding to this matter
Thanks in advance :-D
