Strange error 0x800A01AE from Windows Update

[Guest]

I received strange error 0x800A01AE from Windows Update.
I could not find it nor in Microsoft Database nor other Internet sites.

When accessing the Update site, you receive the 0x800A01AE error.

This issue may happen if the current session of Internet Explorer has cached an older version of
Wuapi.dll
Clean out your temporary internet files etc.

If that doesn't fix the problem:-

Try re-registering the following dlls

Click Start, Select: Run
Now type the follow commands in the Open box, pressing okay after each one:-

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wups2.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll

Reboot and try the Windows Update site again.
