Windows Update Error 0x80072F7C

After I click the Express button I get an error code 0x80072F7C. I have
tried looking up this error and all I can find it that is a HTTP Redirection
error. I have not been able to find a solution. Does anyone have any ideas?

All mind readers are currently busy making money on the stock market.

How to ask a question
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375

1) Which edition of Windows and what Service Pack level is it at ?
2) What is the installed security software ?
(Antivirus/security suite/anti-spyware, etc.)
3) Is a 3rd party firewall being used ?


0x80072F7c ERROR_WINHTTP_REDIRECT_FAILED
Can be caused by a corrupt or older redirect .cab file, a 3rd party
firewall, or a security suite/anti-spyware/AV
