Windows Update in Guest Win98se

Hi folks. Sorry, I'm not your technominded type of person, so if you give a
reply, PLEASE try to make it so us morons can understand it. ;)

I am running the trial version of VPC2004.

Host:
Intel P4 Presler (dual core) at 3.2GHz; 2 GB DDR RAM; 2 250 GB WD SATA2
16m cache HDDs; Virtual PC 2004 Trial

Guest:
Windows 98se; 128mb RAM allocated; 17gb HDD; vpc additional installed

The problem I'm having is, when running windows update on the guest vm, it
does the system scan and then is stopped by Microsoft Error #(0x80072F89)

Anyone know anything about this error or anyway to fix it? I wouldn't mind
having the updates installed on that vm.

Thanks.

I found a couple of sites that suggested that it was necessary to update to
IE6 first and then try windows update.
