first I reinstalled SP2
then
C:\Documents and Settings\chris>Regsvr32 %windir%\system32\qmgr.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\chris>regsvr32 %windir%\system32\qmgrprxy.dll
C:\Documents and Settings\chris>regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
I have also done a cursory comparison the registry against a different XP
SP2 computer which has no problem and could not find a different so far as
"Automatic Updates" was concerned.
I have also checked that key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\Current Version\SvcHost, value netsvcs includes BITS and wuauserv - it
does.
Could somebody please help me out here?
Thanks,
Chris Pankhurst
Start button > select RUN> type in SERVICES.MSC
The following services are needed by the processes at Windows Update. In services management console ( services.msc) they must NOT be *Disabled* in the Startup type.
They need to show a startup type of Manual or Automatic.
Here are the services & their Startup types:
Background Intelligent Transfer Service(BITS) Manual
Cryptographic Services Automatic
Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Automatic
System Restore Service Automatic
Now then, look at the entry for Automatic Updates. Does it shows Started in the Status column? If not, click on "Start" the service link.

or
"Checking for updates, depending on your speed this process may take several minutes"
Try registering the following:
Click Start, select Run and type (pressing enter after each one and wait for the success message):
net.exe stop wuauserv
Press Ok
Repeat for the following:
regsvr32 wuapi.dll
regsvr32 wups.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
regsvr32 wuaueng1.dll
regsvr32 wuweb.dll
regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 wucltui.dll
regsvr32 msxml3.dll
regsvr32 softpub.dll
regsvr32 atl.dll
net.exe start wuauserv
