From: MowGreen on 23 May 2010 12:51 0x8024D007 WU_E_SETUP_REGISTRATION_FAILED Windows Update Agent could not be updated because regsvr32.exe returned an error This situation arises when the Windows Update Agent can not register files required to update the system. As to the cause of this issue, it may be the security software or, less likely, malware. Download and save the WUA: http://download.windowsupdate.com/windowsupdate/redist/standalone/7.4.7600.226/windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe Configure the system to Clean boot: How to configure Windows XP to start in a clean boot state http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 Run windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe and add the force switch <path>\windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe /force or, stop the Automatic Updates and Background Intelligent Transfer service (BITS) and then run windowsupdateagent30-x86.exe Reboot. See if the system can detect and download updates now. If it can, suggest you UNdo the Clean boot steps and test again. If no joy, then go here and download the Fixit from this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 Again, once the download completes configure the system to Clean boot. Once it's in the Clean boot state, run MicrosoftFixit50202.msi and choose the Aggressive option. NOTE: The system *must* be connected to the internet when the Fixit is run in it's Aggressive option. When the Fixit is done, restart the system and see if it can detect and download updates. If it can, UNdo the Clean boot steps and test again.

Hi, Michael Try looking at the permissions of the SvcHost, Check that administrators have full control. Go to Start> Run > Regedit> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE> Software> Microsoft> WindowsNT> CurrentVersion> SvcHost> Right Click & select Permissions> Change administrators to Full Control & Click Ok. Now try Windows Update. This worked for me.
