Error 0x800A138F - 0x800C0002

The problem is due to caching on the proxy. We released a new file for the
site which is more than likely being cached by your ISP.
As a temporary workaround try using the secured link to access Windows
Update: https://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Internet Service Providers typically clear the proxy cache every 3-5 days,
once the proxy is cached you can again access the site
using the default link http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
