Vista Code 80072efe
Have a HP DV9429US with Vista Home Premium 32 bit Service Pack 2 and I could not update for a while now. I had various problems of recent virus, even if I run the Microsoft Security Essentials, which was not able to update or another. I used Malwarebytes to clean and for the most part, questions went except the update and when I google search I have pop - ups odd and I'm badly routed to different sites. I read a few other posts on this problem and have you met yet a solution. Help, please!
Thanks in advance,
Mark

Vista - Code error: 80072EFE (cannot install updates)
I have Windows Vista Business Service Pack 2 on a Lenovo T400s Intel Core 2 Duo P9600 @ 2.53 GHz.
I found an answer that has recommended a boot Fixit and clean running. I did, try the options Standard and aggressive with Fixit. But I still get the same error message (80072EFE) whenever I try to receive updates. Thanks for any advice.

original title: SLOW INTERNET
I restarted windows vista because he was running like junk. Now the computer works normally, but the internet is PAINFULLY slow. It worked until I reinstalled vista. My cable is in working condition. I can only load half of a Web page if I'm lucky. Is there a port or something that I need to open to let my internet go to more than 9 bytes/second? I have to ask this on another computer because it would take 6 years for this thing to load. I get error Code 80072EFE when I try to update. Help me because im losing all faith in microsoft.

CODE 80072EFE: cannot run windows update
I had some problems with my computer Windows Vista - Business Office. Here are the ones I've noticed so far.
1. I can't run windows update, I get error code 80072efe when I try.
2. I get continuous popups. Not all the time and not every time I have a Web browser open. Sometimes my browser will open only to Web sites at random, for most of the sites trying to sell me something. I've just close it before it ends even loading and it will be generally fine for awhile.
3. on my desk, I'm going to organize my icons where I want that they around my screen (work icons in a spot programs, browsers/email in another, records of files on my second monitor, etc.) Whenever I restart all my icons automatically group either by date or name, and I have to go through the re-organization. (This one is obviously not really important but I thought that I list all symptoms).
4. I tried to do a system restore, my computer has a restore point when you start if you press F11 on the scree of HP (or enter the boot menu by pressing F8 or F5, etc) and it will not allow me to enter this screen. I can't enter the menu start and any other menu it lists on this screen, but the system restore seems to be disabled in some way.
I tried to run the scan on windows.live.support (or whatever the site is) and he found a lot of problems and 1 question he couldn't solve, so now I'm stuck. I tried running malwarebytes scan and it does not pick up any viruses.
Any suggestions?
Launch TDsskiller (Rootkit removal tool)

After that, restart the computer and check for updates
