cbumpkin · 2013/11/21

I have automatic security updates set to install every day at 3:00 A. M.
They have not installed since Wed. Sept. 11. the first one to fail was windows malicious soft removal tool KB890830. Now I can't get anything to install. get code 80072EFD. Also please tell me how to set a previous last known good check point. OS is xp with servic pack3.

It may be Zone Alarm's firewall stopping the updates. When did you install Zone Alarm?

Windows Update error 80072efd

I haved looked under START programs and "Add & Remove" program. and a search for
Zone Alarm. I don't believe it is installed. have Win. fire wall turned on AVG anti virus running all the time. and I run Malware bytes every 2 or 3 weeks
