Microsoft Windows Update Web site "encounters an error" and stops whenever I run the update.
I got 'Factory Restore' from my PC, so I don't know I have re-installed Windows XP needs a LOT of updates, but whenever I visit Microsoft Windows Update and it starts looking for updates, I need, it hangs, saying: the website has encountered an error.
I've updated the IE6 from the IE8 recovery DVD, after reading that IE6 is no longer compatible with the Update Service, but the Windows Update problem persists.
Thank you very much for your quick response.
I have Win XP SP2, so I TRIED to install SP3, but it fails, saying the license / Digital Signature for the SP3 update is invalid.
Help!
Bob,
Download the standalone SP3 installation program from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24
You will see that it is described as being for IT and the developers, but it is no different than the same file that you can download from the Windows Update site (if you can get there).
If after installing SP3, you still have a problem with Windows Update, run this Fixit:

Have tried to install several times with the same result. Please NOTE... that every time I go to Windows Update (& execution 'check available updates') than post results this update (security for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 x 86 (KB2833941)) however indicates that the update is already downloaded on my machine & requires ONLY being installed. (personally, it is my belief that there could be a problem with the download... what causes the installation to fail... However NO way to re - download is available? I tried to delete my temporary Internet files & Cache + ran disk cleanup... niether have removed the download of my machine. Also checked 'Add Remove Programs'... just to see if it was listed there... and it wasn't! So certainly, the update is NOT installed, I can NOT delete the download that is perhaps corrupt... and preventing me to replace it with a NEW copy.) ANYONE GOT SUGGESTIONS? Help, please! All other updates are installed on the machine... other than this one, & I'm off clues as to what to try next. Thank you!

I can't connect to the microsoft/windows update system
no error to come, just that the Web page cannot be displayed, even more I tried different microsoft addresses to microsoft/windows update Center. Have tried @ different times of the day and night. Don't have login once yesterday and has recovered part of the updates and then lost the site. Any help will be useful, thanks
Is this a sudden, new problem?
WinXP SP3 is installed?
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)?
Give an application of Norton or McAfee has already been installed on the computer?
A Norton or McAfee free trial come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (No matter if you have never used or activated).

update of sql server 2005 service pack 3 error code 6D9E Windows update security does not accept the update
Hey lasdj,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers site!
If you receive Windows Update error 6d9e while installing SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 by using Windows Update, it means that the installation folders and directories are compressed or encrypted.
To fix this problem, make sure the folder locations where you are installing the service pack to aren't compressed or encrypted, or specify a different folder and then run Windows Update again.
Therefore, remove the compression of the DATA directory and run together to the top again.
Remove compression from the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server folder and see if you are able to install the updates without any problem.
See the links below for more details:

MS wrote to install my DVD of microsoft, but I did not. I don't think I had one for the last 3 computers I've owned.
I made a disc repair system if that helps and you have run the MS malicious software tool and the update tool.
So far I have not found anything that even begins to point me in the right direction to solve this problem.
The computer is a gateway.

The error code is 'Windows Update error 80072ee2'. SO how to fix in a step-by-step fashion. I added the site proposed for the update in my antivirus while list.
Hi Sarma_RN,
1. When you receive the error message?
2. update you are trying to install?
3. When was the last time you were able to install updates?
If Windows Update, error 80072ee2 during updates, the Windows Update servers may experience an unusually high number of requests for updates. Close Windows Update, wait 10 to 15 minutes, and then run Windows Update again. Alternatively, you can wait for automatic update of Windows run at its next scheduled time.
These errors can occur caused by one of the following problems:
- Applications or processes that interfere with Internet communications
- Problems on your computer
- Strong Internet activity
- Recoverable database errors
See the Microsoft article and try the steps mentioned below.

Whenever my computer installs the Microsoft/Windows updates I get Internet and restoring the system to return.
Cite your version of IE and the full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7 RC. Win7) during the validation in an IE specific forum or a newsgroup. Please do it in your next reply.
By "The Internet began" do you mean that you encounter errors Page can not be displayed ?
Updates have you installed just before this problem started? Have you installed an update of the third-party driver that is offered by Windows Update?
TIP: Never, EVER to use system restore to 'Cancel' an update, Service Pack, or upgrade of IE! Instead, uninstall the update, Service Pack, or the IE patch & reboot. If that does not resolve the problem, then try System Restore. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

I run windows vista professional. have encountered error 80072F8F with windows updates. It also seems to have an impact on the renewal of McAfee. I'm not very wise computer & so very frustrated. McAfee has suggested that I have the problem of windows?
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80072F8F
If Windows Update error 80072f8f during updates, date and time on your computer may not be identical to the date and time for the service online from Windows Update. Your computer and the service have no need to have an identical date and time, but if they vary too much it will prevent you from checking for updates.
Make sure your internet box etc. is correct also.
