Whats interesting is that all I had to do was stop the service, register the wups2.dll and restart the service to have everything work fine.

This folder is located in the Windows directory. This will force your computer to re-download the latest Windows Update Agent and you will need to re-install the Microsoft Update ActiveX again as well.

This was a fresh XP install with SP3 installed after. There were 10 updates and it kept failing on the install. I found this and using Method 1 did seem to fix the problem (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144) Anyone come across this yet?
