Windows/Microsoft updates does not work.

[AWS]

I have XP w/ sp2 & sp3, NIS, running as administrator.   No automatic updates even though the updates is turned on.   When trying to update manually, it goes through the checking for validity then shows the express or custom options. 

I usually check the custom option which then checks for available updates.  After awhile the list comes up showing

NO updates available.  The history shows only Powerpoint/Office updates having been done and four other updates that failed. My wife's computor works just fine, mine does not.  I haven't had an update for windows, etc since last year. 

And this February 2013 update does not show at all.  What can I do to turn this around?
