Also you may want to try one of the items below.
↓ ↓
Most of the items below are for XP but they work in win2k also.
Question: Why can't I download updates?
To get the updates to re-appear and/or to be listed as available again. Go to Start/Run/CMD
and type in:
del /q "%SystemRoot%\System32\Catroot2\Edb.log. Then try again.
Can't download any updates and/or you receive an error message: Go to Start/Run
and type in: regsvr32 wintrust.dll.
If that doesn't help: Go to Start/Run and type in CMD. At the command prompt, type
the following commands, pressing ENTER after each line:
net stop cryptsvc
ren %systemroot%\system32\catroot2 oldcatroot2
net start cryptsvc
Then try the install again or run this script.
Correct the Cryptographic Service Error Message (Line 266)

Another issue: When you use the Windows Update scan feature, the scan quickly reaches
100%, and then displays the "There are no updates available at this time" message.
To correct this:
Verify that your computer's date and time are accurate and that the Internet Explorer
language option is not empty.
To check the language setting in Internet Explorer:
1. Click "Tools" and then choose "Internet Options"
2. Click the "Languages" button
3. Make sure at least one language is listed in the "Language Options" dialog.
If the above hasn't helped: Go to Internet Explorer/Tools/Internet Options/Connections/Lan
Settings and uncheck: Automatically detect settings.
