Re: Fixed Error 0x80072EE2

I just spent hours trying to figure out why no one on our network could
run Windows Updates and got the error code 0x80072EE2. Turned out one of
our PIX firewall guys stuck a line of code in denying any Limewire
traffic. Ironically I came across another forum where someone said a
Windows Update they installed broke their Limewire connectivity. Maybe
so, maybe not. I am just glad that is over. Good luck.

WTF does Limewire have to do with Windows Update?

My "limewire" works okay, in case you're interested.
