Have a look at this KB article -

You may encounter temporary connection-related errors when you use Windows
Update or Microsoft Update to install updates
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/836941

Other information:

Make sure you haven't got anything blocking Windows Update like Nortons,
Zonealarm etc

Also make sure you don't have a Web Accelerator working in the background
such as NetZerio, HiSpeed, Speedband etc.

You could try the following suggestions:-

Suggestion 1. Click Start, select Run and type (pressing enter after each
one and wait for the success message):

regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll
regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 atl.dll

If you encounter any errors while registering any of the files then skip
that file and then continue with the next one (also note that there is a
space after the 32).

Now try Windows Update again.

Suggestion 2. Change the proxy information to NOT automatically detect
settings as this issue can also occur if your proxy setting are configured
to automatically detect settings.

. Click Start/ Settings and choose Control Panel.
. Choose Network and Internet Connections and then choose Internet Options
(or go straight to Internet Options in classic view).
. Click the Connections tab.
. Click the LAN Settings button.
. In the Automatic configuration frame uncheck "Automatically detect
settings" and uncheck "Use automatic configuration script"
. Click OK and then OK again to close the window.

Now try Windows Update again.

Suggestion 3: Could occur if Security settings in Internet Explorer are not
set to Medium or lower for ActiveX files to correctly pass to your computer.
Only the Web sites listed in Internet Explorer's Trusted Sites Zone will be
affected by the lowering of Security settings. Your current security
settings for all other Web sites will remain as they are currently
configured.

. From the main toolbar in Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click
Internet Options.
. Click Security.
. Click Trusted Sites Zone.
. Click Sites.
. Clear the Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone
check box.
. Use the Add button next to the Add this Web site to the zone box to add
the following sites:

http://update.microsoft.com
http://download.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/v6/default.aspx

. Click OK.

Now try Windows Update again.
