Error 80072ee2 in Messenger

[Owala]

I have a laptop as well as a desktop running with Windows XP SP3. Both of MSN Messenger 2009 installed. Two days ago suddenly the messenger on desktop stopped showing up the contact list. I went through few troubleshooting steps where I saw Error 80072EFD several times. Final after an hour troubleshoot I was able to fix the problem by re-registering some DLL's as mentioned in one of the Microsoft KB Articles.

That problem got fixed but now I continuously keep getting Error Code 80072EE2. I tried to search help regarding this as well on MS but just the thing I received is it can be fixed by Windows Update. I tried it several times but no help.

Can anyone here please tell me how can get rid of this error?

The error code you have mentioned is actually related to Windows Update. So I think this is what you need:
