This error can be caused if you are behind a firewall and also occasionally
if Internet Explorer is set for 'Automatically Detect Settings' under LAN
settings on the Connections tab.

I looked in Internet Explorer and found it not in automatically detect settings, I also went into the control panel and looked for a reference to a firewall and found none. I tried again to use the Windows Update and got the same error message as before. Any Ideas as to what I can do now???
