Vista Update & Microsoft.com problem
-
I'd like to install newest updates and SP for Vista Business x64. Unfortunately, I get a WindowsUpdate 80072EFE error when trying to "Check for updates". I searched our articles, the forums and Google before I posted this, I tried several solutions but none of them worked. I did not search neither MSDN nor Microsoft.com because they simply don't want to open for me (and propably this is the reason). All pages on Internet open correctly, but microsoft does not. This is not a temporary state, I live with it a long time, but now I've got Vista and I want to install some updates hoping it will not crush every fifteen minutes. PS.: I do not use any pirate software which could intentionally block microsoft stuff... ------------ Network connection status: http://image-share.com/viewer.php?id=opt1204575043s.gif[^] Windows Update Log selection:

2006-11-02 07:25:24:895 892 e4 Service WARNING: failed to get network state for Ipv6 with error 0, because CIpAddressMonitor is not initializedDecoding HRESULTs: if the HRESULT is 0x8007nnnn, it's FACILITY_WIN32, which means it's a Win32 error code encapsulated in an HRESULT. To decode, first convert the low 16 bits (here 0x2efe) to decimal. Here it's 12,030. Normally you'd look this up in WinError.h, but I know that Win32 errors in the 12000 - 12999 range belong to WinInet, so we look it up in WinInet.h. These error codes (ERROR_INTERNET_xxxx) are defined as an offset from INTERNET_ERROR_BASE which is 12000, so we need INTERNET_ERROR_BASE + 30, which is ERROR_INTERNET_CONNECTION_ABORTED. That wasn't too helpful, actually. I'd check whether you have a proxy server configured in Internet Explorer and if so, check whether you can connect without a proxy.

Thank you Mike. Google has a built-in HRESULT decoder: You input "80072EFE update" and you get about 3,080 explanations. E.g. "80072EFE ERROR_INTERNET_CONNECTION_ABORTED The connection with the server has been terminated." But thank you for a versatile solution. I do not use proxy connection. Note that I have access to the whole Internet excluding microsoft.com and msdn.com. Say what you want, but I'm sure some devil forces have a hand with it. Any ideas how to neutralize them...?
