When I try to update Windows I get the error that the page could not be displayed with error code 0x80244004.

I'm running XP SP3.
Fresh install many years ago.
NOT running Eset and never have.
Have been running Avast. As an experiment I uninstalled Avast and tried update without any AV but still had problem.
Virus scans with Avast, Malwarebytes and TDSSKiller all come up clean.
System may have had a rootkit some time ago that was cleaned.
Proxy was checked using both IE options and proxycfg, no proxy.
I don't know exactly when the problem started since I use this computer mainly for file strage and backup and I don't check it that often.
Java version installed is version 7 update 21. All older versions have been removed.

What else did I miss?

Thanks!
