• Error code 80072EFD with Vista updates

  Unfortunately, I tried to use these sites but the firewall on my Vista family premium will only allow the programs well and NOT websites.  I have 4 important updates that need to download so I can install them.  I get this error message all the time and sometimes they get in through slowly but then they cannot install and the firewall prevents them.  What to do?

  Help!

  AishaKatherine

  * Title *.
  Error code 80072EFD. It is a firewall issue and it lists three sites to allow through the firewall. Only programs are allowed through the firewall no websites. Help! @! What should I do?

  Quote your full version of Windows (for example, Vista SP1;) Vista 64 - bit SP2) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.

  What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?

  A (another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

• Error code: 80072EFD, impossible to find the solution to make windows update work

  OK, so I just recently returned from the school where Windows Update worked perfectly.  When I got home he stopped work at all, give me the error code: 80072EFD. (I'm using Vista Ultimate 64 bit)  I tried everything on the support page and nothing works.  It might be my router somehow or something else?

  WestCoastGirl,
  I suggest that you go get the Norton removal tool and run do so that there is no trace of it remaining.  It seems that you might have an infection already.  Take a look at this thread because it has some great info on virus\malware: get rid of malware

  I guess you're running Vista.

  As for your 2nd question about the updates of Windows - Win 7 If you run Norton, you might have a problem. It can accept updates for Vista, but when you upgrade to Windows 7 it does not updates allow.

  Strongly suggest that you download and Save Malwarebytes Anti-malware

  http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free> (MBAM)
  Once the download completes browsers and close all programs open.
  Delete the Temporary Internet files cache in the Control Panel >Internet Options
  (In Vista , click Delete under browsing history

  Install MBAM now and allow to update its definitions during the installation.
  Once MBAM is installed, run a quick scan by clicking the Scan button.
  Once the scan is completed, click on the button to display the results.
  Make sure that all detected is checked and then click the selected button remove.

  IF any what has been detected please post the MBAM log scan.
