Default Can't use windows update after SP2 download

After downloading SP2 and tweaking problems that it created, I finally
everything working correctly with the exception of Windows update. When I
try to update I get Error )x800A01AD. I tried the fix that microsoft gives
in the registry with Permissions but it doesn't help.

Any other suggestions?

You may receive an error message when you search for available updates on the Windows
Update Web site
”0x800A01AD error code
To resolve this error, register the Wuaueng.dll file. To do this, follow these steps:
Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 Wuaueng.dll, and then click OK two times. “

You receive a 0x800A01AD error message while you access the Windows Update Web site

If neither of the above help, post the WU NG stating your OS and what you've already
tried.
