    The thread you hijacked is dealing with 80240016 install error. Your errors
    relate to 80072ee7 & 8024402C.

    Please start your own posting in the future and it would be nice if you
    could tell us more information, like what OS you're using etc.

    FYI -
    80072ee7 - This error code translates to ERROR_INTERNET_CANNOT_CONNECT. This
    could be caused by firewall software blocking the Windows Update Site.

    You may encounter temporary connection-related errors when you use Windows
    Update or Microsoft Update to install updates


    When searching for available updates on the Update site, you see the
    0x80072EE7 error



    When searching for available updates on the Update site, you receive the
    0x8024402C error

    A misconfigured Proxy/Firewall can cause this problem. Double-check the
    Proxy/Firewall settings

    You may receive an error message when you search for available updates on
    the Windows Update Web site or on the Microsoft Update Web site


    You may receive a "0x8024402C" error message when you scan for updates on
    the Windows Update Web site

    I've also got this same error message. I'm running Vista Business with
    Service Pack 1, an Intel Core 2 duo, t7400@2.16Ghz, 2Gb Ram, 32Bit. The
    machine is a Compaq nx9420 laptop.

    I've tried running the command prompt as Admin using "net stop wuauserv" and
    "net start wuauserv" without effect - same problem as before.

    Windows Help is useless here and the update will not proceed... help!

    HI all,

    I know that this is an OLD thread. However, I was encountering this for the
    last two months. The resolution for me was that I had a virus on the machine
    called "System Security" which just blocked updates. No other errors to
    speak of. Thanks Geoff for your post since it is what drove me down the
    virus path.

    The sfc/scannow solution worked for me (after I had discovered how to turn
    off Account settings - via the Control panel). I then only had 4 downloads
    that had failed, instead of 39 but I also had a new error message!!! After
    rebooting I had around 43 failed downloads. None of the suggestions so far
    have helped with this new error code: 80070002, so I am trawling through this
    forum again, just before I bin my laptop.

    This procedure worked perfectly for me! Thank you so much.

    Stop the Windows Update service;
    Rename %windir%\SoftwareDistribution folder;
    Start the Windows Update service
