This happens if tbEventInstance table exceeds 1 million events and then blocks the client computers from reporting back to the WSUS server. In this case, you might want to reconsider WUA detection cycle (I have seen the same symptoms where the detection cycle was set to every 1-3 hours) and delete all the current events from the tbEventInstance table.

Try the hot fix and workaround mentioned in the article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;909131

# re: Reporter failed to upload events with hr = 80244008

I have that error in my WindowsUpdate log file and our WSUS server only has 360 records in the tblEventInstance so there must be something else causing this?????
