Assuming Windows XP -

You cannot turn on the Automatic Updates feature on a Windows XP Service Pack 2-based
computer
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/916261
The Automatic Updates feature is turned off in the Security Center. Additionally, you
cannot turn on the Automatic Updates feature.
When you try to install updates from the Microsoft Windows Update Web site, you may
receive an error message that resembles the following:
0x80070424

Xposted the Windows Update Newsgroup for your convenience.
