Microsoft/Windows Update Error 0x80004005?

Question

Whenever I go to Microsoft Update, the page fails to load and gives me error number 0x80004005. I have heard that this is from Win Media Player 11, which I have, but I WILL NOT remove Media Player 11, I love it too much. What is REALLY behind all this crap and is there anything that I (or someone else) can do to help?
