From: Geoff D Geoff on 27 Jan 2009 09:40 You're not dreaming. I can't confirm a start date of Jan 22. But yesterday Jan 26 I tried two different clean installs of Windows 2003 R2 SP2 in both 32 and 64 bit, and both couldn't get past the update phase of the post-installation dialogue. I was using the same installation media, hardware, method etc. etc. that I've used a hundred times before. The update process in IE ran VERY slowly, failed numerous times with the 0x80072EFF error, and partially downloaded the current versions of the Windows or Microsoft update software before siezing. I double checked all the usual security options that might prevent download and they were fine. No firewalls are in play. Last night around 9:30 PM EST I finally concluded the problem was on the Microsoft end. So I shut the server with the latest install off and went to bed. This morning, I got up, booted up that server, and updated with no problem or intervention! So something between here and Microsoft changed between last night and this morning.

From: sepl on 28 Jan 2009 00:35 Well, Windows Update all of a sudden worked last afternoon and I was able to bring the server to the current patch level. I did not make any changes to the OS or anything else. I however noticed this morning that yet another server is now unable to get the patches off the Windows Update site. Looks like something weird is going on with Windows Update can't seem to figure out what though. I guess, we will have to just wait and keep trying in the hope that the Windows Update site will suddenly become available and the patches can be downloaded. Pity.
