Windows Update Error Code 80244019 - Serious Problem

Everytime I try to update I get this code, I looked on these forums and found a way to fix it by going to Regedit and navigating to:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]

Then selecting dword value:

"UseWUServer"=dword:00000001"

and change the value to 0.

Then reboot.

However I have two problems:

1. In Regedit when I am following those links after Windows I cannot see a WindowsUpdate link!

2. Less importantly what does he mean by reboot, is he just saying restart?

Simple fix:

Start -> Run -> Regedit.
Search for "UseWUServer", when the key is found, set the value(dword) to 0.
Then reboot you machine, IE: restart, power cycle, whatever you want to call it.

Hope this helps.
