Tip: Temporarily disable real-time protection by your anti-virus and/or
anti-spyware applications (e.g., CounterSpy, Spysweeper, Spybot Tea Timer,
AVG Anti-Spyware) and/or any third-party firewall (e.g., ZA) before
attempting to install the update(s). If you disable the third-party
firewall, make certain that you enable the Windows Firewall!

Mr Bear. My last Post disappeared with error message. I went (as advised)
to security centre and it told me it cannot run because its running somewhere
else--I postphoned shutting down Firewall and Antivirus and hit the Microsoft
update buttons all failed with error number 0x80072ee2-----then I go back to
security centre its open this time except one of the "resources" in the left
pane tells me I'm not connected to the Internet(Im on broadband and was
connected)
Sorry I'm being such a pain----Is it a bug
Regards. Johno

No problem, you're going fine. Now see this KB article:
You may receive an "Error 0x80072EE2"... error message when you try to use
the Windows Update Web site or the Microsoft Update Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/836941
Try the Guided Help, if possible.
Don't neglect to see the MORE INFORMATION section at the very bottom, too.
NB: I must tell you that we've been seeing a lot of posts describing the
problems you're having. Most of the others I've helped turned out to have
had a hijackware infection (i.e., Vundo, accompanied by ZLOB, an
SDBot-variant, and all protected by a rootkit) that was causing the problem.
If necessary, I can point you in the right direction to fix that, too.

Could be!
Unexplained computer behavior may be caused by deceptive software
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827315
Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe) is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to
http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30,
http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22,
http://castlecops.com/forum67.html, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**
If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
