When trying to Update the definitions on Windows Defender beta 2 , I get
this error:
"
Windows Defender was unable to complete the update: 0x800b0003.
The form specified for the subject is not one supported or known by the
specific trust provider.
"
I'm running Windows 2000 with all the updates.

Windows Defender Version: 1.1.1347.0
Engine Version: 1.1.1303.0
Definition Version: 1.0.0.0

I've tried remedies from these:

as well as those posted in this group,
except for an advise on unistalling .Net Framework 1.1 (and all its hot
fixes? and what about 1.0..?) since I'm afraid it could do more damage than
help.

Anybody with the same error message and a working solution?
