I can't update Windows programmes (Microsoft update), I get error

I was able to get update to run by going to IE 'help' menu - About Internet
Explorer. Click the System Info button. Under 'Pick a task...' click 1st
item for windows update.

Error 0x80072EE2 is: ERROR_INTERNET_TIMEOUT
Translation: The request has timed out.

It could be that the servers are busy and trying at another time may rectify
the problem. If not, see the link below for troubleshooting methods.

"In most cases, these messages are temporary or short-lived issues that are
caused by very slight interruptions in communications between the computer
that is being updated and the Windows update servers. These issues are
generally self-healing. "

Server 2008) and from different locations.
