Windows Update Error 0x80072EFD

[Mal Dinsdale]

Hi
Just attempted to install latest Windows update feature.
However during the initial download of the the update I
chickened out and cancelled the download. After reviewing
the Windows update feature I decided to give it another
try. While my computer was being analyzed to establish
whaat updates were required I recieved the following error
No 0x80072EFD. There is are similar errors posted by
Microsoft to troubleshoot this problem but none with the
same error No:
Any help appreciated in resolving this problem as I cannot
update Windows (although maybe this is not such a bad
thing)
Regards
Mal Dinsdale

If you have Norton Internet Security or something similar installed
(e.g. some 3rd party firewall as mentioned in the article above),
you might need to reconfigure or disable it.
