Default [Error number: 0x8002802B] is driving me CRAZY!!!

Since the last web components get updated (more then half year ago) I'm no
longer able to run a manual update neither on Windows update nor Microsoft
update web pages. It says [Error number: 0x8002802B].
I tried all the methods described on web (I Google it for) and nothing
worked.
Does anyone know what should I do?
Thank you very much, in advance!

Laurian

NB
I'm running Windows XP, latest SP with all patches, and IE8.

8002802b = Create_object_failed

Is Automatic Updates enabled and still working?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

NB: If you're seeing the effects of a hijackware infection, none of the
following will be worthwhile!...

Dear Robear Dyer,

Automatic Updates is enabled.
Avast Antivirus Beta - is not the one in culprit, I tested that.
SUERAntispyware free edition - it's not working in real-time.
No third-party firewall.
I tried Norton and McAfee a very long time ago, just for testing purposes.
No other third-party installed software's are in culprit - I tested that
too.

Switching does not equal solving.

Who cares? Solving is worthwhile only when the solution is useful.
Anyway, I heard MS is going to ditch XP since they want to push people
to use 7. They couldn't do it with Vista becoz it never worked
properly. So switching will not be an option much longer, it will be
essential.

Good one ...
Should not this be followed up with "regedit" and then delete
everything with Symantec, Norton and McAfee? Or do those two links
take care of that?
