I'm not superstitious, but make a dump run and take the 200 pounds of dead weight in blown glass and miscellaneous mishe metal off that old desktop before running the WU wizard.
Oh, and enable automatic software updates. If only for a couple of hours.
Be nice to the dump attendant also.
To reiterate, I'm not superstitious.

Try downloading SP3 and installing it. If this does not work there should be a fix for Windows Update on MS site.

I have many old, working computers that I don't want or need to upgrade. My everyday computer is Windows 8, so I'm not really USING XP.
Does it not make sense to make sure they have the latest updates before XP support is cut off?

It's one of those rare TV shows, that succeeds in being funny and horribly educational at the same time.

Yeah I got that from the google, don't think we get it here/ Don't know for sure haven't turned on the TV for 4-5 months other than to watch Netflix occasionally but they rarely have anything that interests me.

Not until you mentioned him.
