Following install of SP2 windows update produced the "Sorry" screen (Error
report 80072EE2) effectively preventing me accessing any future updates.

For the benefit of any others who might experience the same problem the
answer was that my firewall had blocked "generic host win32" - no idea how
that happened. Once this was unchecked online update worked fine
