Override the group policy of your intranet by setting this registry key to 0 in regedit.exe

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\UseWUServer

Then restart windows update service (wuauserv).

If you want to create a .reg file:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU]
"UseWUServer"=dword:00000000

Of course if possible, it's better to ask your admin to fix the WUS server to get updates normally.
