Just wondering if anyone has run into the following:
1 - Testing a Windows 7 Pro system
2 - 2003 Active Directory enviornment
3 - System can browse the network and Internet w/o issue.

Problem: When attempting to run Windows Update, will always fail with Error: 80072EE2

So far: I've tried everything I can find on the net to resolve this without luck. From reinstalling and updating the NIC drivers to clearing the proxy cache/software dist folder and stopping/starting the update service. This occurs on HP and Acer desktops, but not on Lenovo laptops.

thanks in advance

Here's something.
Try and download updates manually.
Do just the secur/hardware ones then see if it fixed the problem.
