Dan,

Please try the following:


Solution 1
-------------

You can work around this issue by adding the following to the exceptions
list in the Internet

Options Proxy Settings:

Windowsupdate.microsoft.com
V4.Windowsupdate.microsoft.com
Download.Windowsupdate.com

To access the Exceptions settings.
1. Open Internet Explorer
2. Click "Tools," and then click "Internet Options."
3. Click "Connections," and then click "LAN Settings."
4. Click "Advanced" and add windowsupdate.microsoft.com to the exceptions
list.


Solution 2
-------------

1. Open Internet Explorer, click "Tools" and then click "Internet Options."
2. Click "Advanced".
3. Scroll down until you see "Use HTTP 1.1 through Proxy Connections," and
then select the
check box.
4. Click "OK."
5. Close and restart Internet Explorer. You should now be able to connect to
Windows Update.


Let me know if any of these suggested solutions work for you.

Thanks!!
