Error 0x80072efe when you try to update microsoft security essentials antivirus and antispyware definitions

Windows XP Home Edition

Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.100427 - 1636:Service Pack 3)

I tried to restart the automatic updates without result. I also get frequent redirects. I have run a complete scan with MSE, and it has not detected any viruses. What else can I do to correct the problem with the error?
