Wink Windows Update Error

I'm trying to update windows using the windows update. When I click "Scan For Updates" it proceeds to the scan page and then forward me to an error page.

"Windows Update Error


Windows Update has encountered an error and cannot display the requested page."

Anyone know why this is happening?

not much to go on so the first thing to check is the security settings you have set in control panel internet options set them to default all so if you have a fire wall try turning it off
